This is a great message from my good friend and author, DiAne Gates, especially today as we remember 9-11-2001.
A praise and glory to our Sovereign God and our Lord Jesus Christ in the midst of our tearful remembering.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, I lived in Army housing at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas, taking care of my two grandchildren…one a year old, the other five, and my son-in-law. Our daughter…their mother…SIL’s wife, had suddenly passed away in February of that year.
While getting the five-year-old ready for kindergarten, I remember my son-in-law shouting “get to the living room…NOW!” I remember seeing the burning building, then the second plane crashed, and the third…and the horror continued! The cries. And like you, my heart filled with fear. Fear for all the men and women surrounding me that I knew would be called into action. Fear for their children…for my children…both son and son-in-law were military…and fear for our nation.
But God always has a purpose and a plan…
