(FW) – Filled with anxiety following a weekend of tragic shootings, Jamisha Harris sent her three young children to school Monday. And now a photo she posted of her kids is going viral.

And I ask that, this year, You would use every person and every experience and every lesson to shape them into Your image, to grow in them the fruit of Your Spirit.” The reality is, Harris, her children, and her husband are learning one day at a time how to find God’s peace in the midst of every experience.
