The world we're living in

The papers greeted me today with the headline of "400 children and adults held hostage". The smaller headline read "Russia under seige by terrorists". Inside- female suicide bombers, french journalists held hostage, napalese riot, etc.

Now, I'm kinda at a loss... how should I, as a Christian, respond? Naturally, I'm appalled by the violence. But also, I'm sad that these people probably didn't have the chance to hear the gospel...

And in my own backyard, many friends have yet to hear the gospel as well... (we're in the life-threatening danger of falling onto mrt tracklines and moral degredation-- people are 'oohing' & 'ahhing' over an "arty-farty" film involving a grandmother's affair with a younger man *sheesh*)
