Thank God for the release of Jill Carroll
Like many other Americans (and people in other countries as well) I often pray for those taken hostage in Iraq. When I saw the videos of Jill Carroll after she was taken, I was quite burdened for her. It is very tough to see a woman in that situation, especially one so young (28) with a full life ahead of her.
It was fantastic this morning to read that she was released. I was hoping the hostage takers would realize that world opinion would take a hostile view toward killing a woman. Perhaps that is the reason for her release. I think, though, the main reason is the prayers of those concerned were answered. That makes my day.

AICS,
It has been awhile since I've had time to stop by and leave a comment. I can see, however, that you are still up to your usually fine work - you've got a great blog here.
I would just second your thoughts with regard to the release of Jill Carroll. It truly is an answer to prayers.
