September 11, 2011

Its hard to believe its been 10yrs. 

10yrs ago today I was helping out at First United Methodist Church in the Daycare for my Childcare class in high school. I remember all the lady's working there not wanting to tlk too much about the incident in front of me. I remember they were mad though..hearing of this 'accident'. On the way bk to school is when I heard/realized about the 2nd plane. I remember just crying w/my mom. That entire day seemed to go in slow motion. Time really did stand still. Remembering today, all those who lost their lives &loved ones. And all the heroic men and women who served that day and the days after. I am so grateful to live in America!! I remember the unity we had that day and the days that followed!! It was definitely something that I will never forget. I am also completely grateful that since that day ten yrs ago, I have found and accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior. I knew deep down that day that there was a God bigger than anything that was going on in NYC..in our USA!! But I didn't KNOW Him. Today I am so undescribably thankful to know Him and have my hope secure in Him. We aren't promised a trial/pain free life. And we may even have our own 9/11's that we have to go through. I am thankful beyond words that when I have my own 9/11's, I am secure in Christ. NOTHING can take that away from me. 

this song was playing on J103 as I wrote this...HAD to share..


Here's a link to a post from Rick Warren that I thought
was wonderful and something that I wish everyone
everywhere could read, grasp and live!!
