In church or temple this week, I want you to think about the following story:

Body ID’d as N.M. Woman
MOUNT AIRY, Md. — Police on Friday identified the woman whose body was found on the side of Interstate 70 early Thursday as Dusty Shuck of Silver City.
Investigators said Shuck, 24, was last seen in New Mexico about 10 days ago.
Authorities confirmed Shuck’s identity through fingerprint analysis and determined a cause of death as blunt force trauma to the head and a slit throat.
Passers-by found her body Thursday along the shoulder of eastbound Interstate 70 in Mount Airy, west of Baltimore.
As you sit there closer to god, ask him two questions: Why was this your plan for her? What is your plan for her vile killer? Let me know the answer you get.
(updated Mon 5/8/06) I’ve heard some believers say our minds are too puny to comprehend god’s plans. Well, perhaps Shuck was going to be the mother of the antichrist or vote Democratic in the fall.
Christ was born to his sacrifice. How many times did Dusty cry to god in 10 days? Who was saved by her sacrifice?
I could understand if people believed god created everything and got overwhelmed or lost interest. But people believe god is actively involved in their everyday lives — that they have a direct and personal relationship to god. How can anyone believe that. I know faith is beyond reason — so is madness. mjh

Woman Seen Day Before Body Found
FREDERICK, Md.— Dusty M. Shuck, whose battered body was found along Interstate 70 in Maryland on May 4, reportedly was seen alive in Breezewood, Pa., the previous evening, a Frederick County prosecutor says.
Shuck, 24, disappeared April 24 after her mother, Lori Atwood, dropped her off for a doctor’s appointment in Silver City.
Deputy State’s Attorney J. Charles Smith said Tuesday a man and a woman told Maryland State Police investigators they saw Shuck at a Petro truck stop in Breezewood, about 25 miles north of the state line the evening of May 3.
“We don’t know what she was doing there and how she got there,” Smith said.
Shuck’s body was found about 5:45 a.m. May 4 along eastbound I-70 a few yards from a trucker rest stop near Mount Airy, about 95 miles east of Breezewood. Her throat had been slit and her upper body had multiple injuries, including blunt force trauma to the head, police have said.
