Remembering September 11, 2001

Today as I ready for Church I hear and see all of the remembrances of 9/11 on the television.   It was a horrific and sad attack against our nation. My heart goes out to the victims who lost family and friends, and to those that lost faith even more so.  We are not unique or so special that we should have been completely surprised.  Everywhere evil attacks and causes havoc, we see it daily, we were just complacent because we've not had to deal with it first hand. Evil is not new to this world, just watch the news every day and you will see it rearing its ugly head all over the world.  Yes, it was a huge wake up call to the United States, because not since Pearl Harbor had our country been attacked so brutally and without apparent warning, with the exception on the Oklahoma City bombing.  It does not matter that the OKC attacks were not carried out by a foreign group, what matters is it was an unexpected attack.

Either way we all need to put our focus back where it belongs, on God and family. Believers world wide need to be stronger in our beliefs and share the word of God and the salvation of Jesus.  The world in general would be a much better place if people would look into their hearts and see that they need Jesus to help them walk through this world in the way God wishes us to. Turning our back, doing what "we" want and not following God's word has made the world the way it is today. Think it about it people.
