A simple physics rule reads: all things move from more to less; water runs down hill, warm air displaces cold air, a steal ball release at 100 feet will drop to zero feet. A car traveling at 55 or 100 miles per hour will come to an abrupt stop when it meets direct contact with a concret wall. I think that is a law of physics in some way. The human body does not do well when subjected to trauma. Sometimes the occupant of the vehicle and body ceases to live when a law of nature or physics is put to the test.
Guardian Angels have no super powers. Plucking a person out of harms way is not within their ability. Laws of Nature prevail. Guardian Angels lose.
God is a merciful God who created the universe, our planet with gravity, and human life. The human body, with guardian angels, is no match for gravity. When you challenge physics and facts with wishes and fantasy, your existence is in peril.
Back to God. God does give us more than we can burden. If he gave us only all that we can burden, I suggest living the life of a very weak and disorderly person.
God does take the best people because they are so good. If that were the case, avoid being too good. Just be a little less than average.
If God needed my son in heaven more than I needed him on earth, maybe I should have been less responsible and more needy.
If God gives what you can burden, takes the best when they are young, calls those who he needs in heaven right now, and places Guardian Angels who fail to do their job, then God is the director of the most twisted, left wing, social system of unjustice ever created. There would need to be a change at the top as this gig is flawed.
Gratefully, those feel good concepts don't cut it, but science and laws of nature do explain what God expects. First, God asks for mercy, not sacrifice. Second, God's world is orderly and predictable based on the sciences, those secrets are being uncovered every day... forever.
The guardian angels are friendly reminders in our head to make choices that would keep us out of harms way. They must work for us and not God, as it appears we are able to give them their leave at our discretion...or, they're lazy little runts who can't do a full days work.
Lets set another false statement straight: Speed Kills. Wrong. The sudden abrupt stop does the fatal damage. Speed is just the catalyst.
Tonight is sleep. Tomorrow is spiritual growth and work on gratitude and forgiveness and patience. I need some patience with people.... right now.
Peace and love to all who read and shared.

Tom, for those of us who have a hard time finding the right thing to say in times like these, please forgive what may sound like anappropriate or insensative remarks. In trying to console we often stumble. While most of us selfishly pray for the strength to get through such a tragedy with you, we would do better praying for the wisdom to help you. Life is neither about what was nor what might have been, but what is.
The will of God will never lead you, where the grace of God cannot keep you
There are no words of Man, nothing you are "feeling" at this very moment, nothing you can touch, nothing you can see with your eyes that are the "TRUTH", that will give you and lead you to what you are looking for. Yet you know where to find the answers, Tom. So seek Him with everything you have left in you. Don't ever stop, EVER. He has the hairs on your head numbered, and only He knows "WHY". Hold fast to the truth....John 16:22.
through hard times, one usually doesnt know what to do.. you have so many people who love you and are here for you every step you take... stay strong tom.. easier said than done, i know.. we love you
I always cringe when I hear someone say that the loss of a child was "God's will", or that "God needed him in heaven". I do not believe either one of those statements because the God I believe in is kind and merciful.
What I do believe is that God shed tears when Aaron died. He, like you, mourns the loss of one of his much beloved children here on earth. He welcomes him to heaven but with sorrow over a life ended much to soon.
You are all in my prayers.
