When most American hear the words "9/11"...there seems to be a moment of silence where we catch a quick breath. And if there isn't..there should be! When I hear 9/11 my mind does an instant replay of that day and then my heart breaks again for the families of those who lost their lives. I remember hearing the announcement on the radio when the first plane hit. Before I could even imagine what was going on, I remembered that my husband was on an airplane at that very moment. As I sat and listened to the following events, I quickly went into a panic mode of determining how my husband was going to get out of the air that morning. He did, praise God, but many others perished that day. Satan won for a little while that day, but I can assure you...God has the final victory!! Many lives have been changed since that day and America has become a stronger nation filled with love for its fellow man. I continue to pray for the families of those lost...that they know God's mighty Presence as they continue to heal. While in NY recently, I visited St. Paul's church to see the items that have been left in memory of 9/11...I also saw the new building that is being built where the towers stood. I had such a sense of God's power while looking up at the new building. And I reflected on the truth that God makes ALL things new! That is my prayer this 9/11...that every American heart allow God to empower them with His hope and peace for His glory!! God BLESS America!!!
