9-11

As Americans, we all know what this day holds. It holds remembrance, grief, disbelief, anger, fear, hope, & purpose. I cannot help but think of what I was doing this fateful day 6 years ago, busily working my shift at NKCH when the world stopped for that moment in time. And to think of how I have grown, evolved, & changed. I drove past a church today that was holding prayer vigils all day in remembrance of 9-11. I applaud this little church for their prayerful action. However, why does it take a horrid memory to remind us to pray...pray for each other, our enemies, our nation, our military, our leaders, our government, our workplaces & our schools. Let us all remain mindful of what this country & each other need; that is, prayer. With that said, I will end and say thank you to all those heroes 6 years ago & continue to pray for all of us left behind.

You are so right about praying all the time (Um, I think that is even Biblical...)
I like to get an e-mail every day from Baghdad Prayer Patrol.

I get an e-mail daily for them and it only takes 1 minute (literally). So, I would encourage you to join and do it daily!
Have a great weekend!
