Torn apart, blown up, and criticized and yet still we stand firm as the greatest nation in the world. The heartless and ignorant choices that were made in effort to tear down and destroy our country have yet to be accomplished by such heinous actions.
Though our country may fight with racial, gender, and economical indifferences, we still stand as one nation under One God, indivisible, for liberty and justice for all!
Whatever the intentions, maybe to murder, horrify, or disable, in which have been temporarily accomplished, they will NOT by any means destroy the strength, hope, unity, and freedom of which our country has strived for so long to establish and stand for.
Lives may have been lost and families left in the balance but behind all of the destruction and hatred displayed on the 11th of September, 2001 at 8:47 am, stands a God whose reasoning is unknown. Though He was not the one that caused such dismay and confusion, He allowed it for whatever reason to happen. It is not our place to judge and understand God but to live life to the fullest and take what is given to us and grow stronger from it.
Through all of the destruction, dismay, and disaster--unity, love, conviction, hope, and faith have squeezed through the cracks of that which has physically been knocked down and demolished.
Our country will pull through this. Not by the President, emergency workers, or volunteer blood donors; but by God through the works of those who love our country and live every second of their life for what is right and good.
The strength of our country is an act of God to whom we should forever indebt our lives and give thanks to. He is the most righteous and holy one. To Him be the glory!
Forever and ever Amen!
Due to certain events that occurred on Tuesday September 11, 2001, our country has united and come together to support the families of those victims, firefighters, and soldiers who have gone off to defend our country against the evils of the world. Thanks to all that have risked and gave their lives for our freedom and safety! God bless you all!
