As long as I live I will always look back and say that September 11th, 2001 was the date that I realized in my heart of hearts that we cannot trust in man.

I learned that there are people out there on this planet that we share that would rather see me and my family dead than thriving and happy. I learned that the people who did this want to see America fall and all her freedoms fail.

These people HATE us and no amount of talking or diplomacy on our part will make them change their minds.

They are committed to annihilating us and what America stands for.

Do you remember...the confusion this day brought...the fear of another attack...the realization that we and our loved ones are not as safe as we thought we were...the grieving for those that died quickly and tragically...the stories of heroism...the towers falling on helpless citizens, firefighters, and policemen...the scarred earth in a Pennsylvania field that would forever testify of heroism...the cell phone calls that entailed tearful good-byes and sobbed "I love you's"....

I'll NEVER forget and since 9/11, my hope has been more grounded in my Savior and His promises,... not those of man.

PLEASE pray for our nation, our president, our local leaders, and those in the military.

Please pray that God would bless America once again as He did when we took this country from those that sought to keep us from living a life of freedom and independence. Please pray for the restoration and the repentance of our Christian brothers and sisters that have fallen in love with the "trappings" of this world. Please pray for a revival in our land and for us as a nation to return to our first Love.

Please Pray for a new hunger and thirst for our God the Father, Jesus the Son and our Savior, and for the teaching, conviction, and comfort of the Holy Spirit.

Please Pray. 

Truly our fight is not against flesh and blood but the powers of darkness (satan and his dominions).

II Chronicles 7:14 

My hope is in Christ alone,
