September 11, 2001



On September 11, 2001 our nation was attacked by cowards, who flew planes into the World Trade Center towers, and the Pentagon.

Even in the midst of such horrific events, the human spirit continued to shine. Many people donated blood for victims, churches all over the nation held prayer vigils, people volunteered their own time to assisst where needed.

Now, almost a year later, much has gone back to pre-9-11. Not as many people are in church, there aren't as many flags being flown. But in other ways, nothing will ever be the same again. We have experienced what many mistakenly thought could not happen, an attack of this magnitude on our own soil. It changed our sense of security forever.

One thing got me through that day nearly one year ago, and that one thing is something I wish all could know.....GOD is in control. In the best of times as well as in events such as 9-11. On that day, listening to the song by that title gave me comfort, encouragement, and a sense of peace. I wish everyone could know that peace.

In this time of reflection on what happened, I pray for those who were affected either directly or indirectly by these viscious attacks.
