I remember vividly that horrible day. The science teacher down the hall from me was in total shambles, at that point he had no idea if his wife was on one of the planes at Logan airport. She was supposed to be working that day. Somehow by the grace of God the plane she was on was not highjacked, it was two small. The evil killers decided to take over the other two bigger planes instead of the one she was in.
The assisant principal came to work that day with her eyes swelled up like ballons, she had been crying profusely until she had heard from her older sister. Her sister worked in one of the twin towers. Her sister is never, never ever late for work, but that infamous day in history, she was just seven minutes late to work. As she hurried toward the twin tower she watched in horror as the building blew up in smoke.
My sister's sister -in -law who worked in one of the twin tower always take her vacation in late June. That year 2001 out of the blue she decided to take her vacation the week of September 10th instead.
I am very thankful, for the aforementioned people who was spared the horror of an untimely death, I continue to pray for the innocent victims who died prematurely. MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS THEIR FAMILIES.
WHEN WE THINK OF THAT DAY WE ALWAYS THINK WITH SADNESS OF THE MANY, MANY LIVES THAT WERE LOST SO, I AM GLAD TO FOCUS ON THOSE THAT WERE SPARED AND I HAVE HEARD OF SO MANY OTHER 'MIRACLES', AS REGIS SAYS, THAT OCCURRED AT THIS TIME. SEPT 11, 2001...I WILL NEVER FORGET IT...FOR THOSE SPARED AND FOR THOSE LOST. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS. LOVE, JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
There are times when I'm convinced life seems to be filled with nothing but a series of tragedies followed by what we deem miracles, all of which leaves me wondering if the challenge of one is presented to see if I will recognize the miracle of the other.
But then writers like Cindy Tuttle posts her article titled "Experiencing God," and I realize that everything in life has a purpose and that God has a plan for each of us.
One thought I hold close is that the strength I gain in facing my challenges in life is meant to fortify and prepare me for my after-life work of being an Angel of Mercy for God.
We remember with deep sadness "That Day In History, September 11, 2001" even as God remembers all of our days in all of history.
Democratic Dilemmas and Divine Inspiration examines the significance or relevance of the idea that the U.S. Constitution was, as many believe, divinely inspired. How much did that belief matter to founders of the nation and how much does it matter no
