9-11...ten years later

Tomorrow will be the tenth anniversary of an horriffic day in our nation.  On that day nearly 3000 civilians lost their lives in the worst terror attack in the history of America.  One might think that such an event might have caused a nation to understand her dependance on God.  Yet it seems that now our citizenry denies any need for God more vehemently than before that fateful day.  Just as we needed brave men and women who would go into the devastation and ruin to retrieve helpless, hopeless, wounded people, on this day we need spiritual heroes who will rise up with great courage and conviction to help a dying world find rescue, redemption, and mostly restoration.  These dark, difficult days reveal a frustrated world, void of hope and joy, unknowingly searching and pleading for that which only Christ can supply.  If we are among those who have found that which the is world is looking for, it is only right for us to share it.  Will you and I stand and be counted among those spiritual heroes in the continuing crisis of devastated lives? The brokenness of our world demands it!

  1. Mike - You were the one who told me about the towers. You came to my classroom to bring Michael's lunch. I'll never forget having to return to class and act like nothing had happened. It was a sad day.
