"We can all  honor the lives lost on September 11th by making our lives count even more." Laura Bush

 

Time to Forget? 

            9/11 was a tragic day for all Americans. It was particularly difficult for those who lost loved ones in the attacks. Much of the hurt was brought again to mind recently with the shooting of Osama bin Laden. Some of the memories are exceptionally painful.

            Let us Never Forget our love for those we lost and the heroic deeds of the brave who gave their lives willingly to rescue others.

            But some things need to be forgotten. What we need to forget is the anger, resentment and bitterness that will rob us of our peace and the freedom to live our lives without regrets.

 

9/11 Cross

What we should Never Forget.

 

            More importantly, we should never forget the most heroic sacrifice of all - the sacrifice that Christ made on behalf of the entire world. His sacrifice gives all who trust him forgiveness for our failures, the power to forgive those who have wronged us and the assurance that we can see our loved ones again in a place where there are no terrorists, no bombs, no sorrow, no loss or separation.
