May God comfort Mr. Cornell's family, and may his plan include healing the two injured persons.

I think god should have come up with a better plan altogether; one that didn't involve anyone getting hit by a truck.

It's not my place to question the Lord or his decisions.

Maybe you should question whether there is a planner at all. The evidence seems to indicate there is a good possibility there is not.

I have questioned and the Lord did answer.
