Today is the 9th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on America. American lives were forever changed on this day nine years ago. We should never forget what happened on that day nor forget to ever pray for the families who lost loved ones and had to move on. Nor should we stop on this 'Patriotic Day' to forget those who sacrifice to keep our freedoms intact for us. Today is a somber day and one not to forget. This also is a day that will live in infamy as FDR said about December 7, 1941. Today also is a good day to feel proud to be an American. We as Americans should never sag our heads down in shame, we should always hold it up high and remember that a nation that puts God first and obey the only God, which is Jesus Christ, will always be a blessed nation. Psalms 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. And Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
Today is also a day that we can learn from the past. The Bible says that 'sin is a reproach to any people.' Meaning this, that as a nation that continues to allow sins to go on, (ex.: abortion, pornography,alcohol and drugs, prostitution, gambling to say a few), without acknowledging their sins and correcting them, then God promises that those sins we commit as a nation will bring bad to us. 9/11 is only one reminder that shows us God will allow bad to happen to us so he can get us to wake up and give up the sins that we commit.
Today when your child or some young one asks you what happened on 9/11 and asks why 9/11 happened, you can set them down and explain to them that when good people do nothing to stop the wrong; then bad people run a muck.
But enough of that. Life does go on and today Michigan Wolverines play the University of Noterdame today.
After Michigan's blowout last week against Conneticut, 30-10. Michigan heads into week 2 and Rich Rodriguez tries to keep his job. Go Blue!!!
Dear Jesus, I also want to say thank you for my family. I was born into a Christian family and I married a christian young lady and now I have devotions and prayer with my baby daughter. It is a blessing I get to have everyday and there are those in the world who live in suppression, who would love to have what I have. Thank you very much Jesus for my salvation! Thank you for my wife and daughter and thank you for my church and Bible. The Christian life is the best life going!
