911DA Story: Story

When I heard that the 1st plane had hit the WTC, I started feeling an overwhelming sense of sadness and dread. I remember the Cuban missile crisis from when I was a child, and how scary that was, and it all came rushing back to me tenfold. When the 2nd plane hit, and I knew that it was an act of war, a sense of being surrounded by evil came over me that I can't shake to this day. It is almost inconcievable that such evil exists, and yet we had proof of it that day. I hope my family and I, and no one anywhere, never have to go through anything like that day again. Only our faith in Jesus can sustain us, and help us to go on. To all those who lost someone on that day, I can only say that those innocent's are with Jesus, and those responsible will pay dearly, with their lives and their souls.
