Living an hour away from NYC, the tragedy of 9/11 really hit home for me. I drove by and saw the smoke. I went to Ground zero a couple weeks after. I can remember everyone pouring into our church and really coming together in unity. But unfortunately that didn’t last very long. Life continued and people slowly forgot about God. That really saddens me.

9/11/2001 is also the day I met my husband for the first time, so even though that day is a tragic day filled with very painful memories – I can also rejoice that God was still working. I am so blessed looking back to where God has brought me.

But I do continue to pray for the families who lost loved ones and for our government and for the terrorists.

Thanks so much for sharing this post.

Cindy, what a great post. It is crazy I remember that day as if it happened yesterday. It was crazy how many teachers we were able to get around that little TV.

I hope tonight when I get home to get my thoughts on the day down in my blog

What a beautiful & moving tribute, Cindy. Thanks for reminding all of us to refocus on what it means to be an AMERICAN, not a member of a party. Let us never forget the lessons we were taught that Tuesday morning………..

I have tears in my eyes reading your post. I was at work that morning. I will never forget someone coming into the store and asking us if we had heard. We all took turns going into the breakroom to watch the devestating news unfold. .-= Lori´s last blog ..Remembering... =-.
