I was home that week with the chicken pox. I received a call from my husband asking me to turn on the T.V. concerning the attack on America. I did so immediately and then dropped to my knees in prayer.

I have been walking with Christ for quite awhile now; however, the day of the attack really brought focus to me. It re-emphasised that my life or love ones life could end with a twinkle of an eye.

We should remember that GOD is always on the throne. That even America is not exempt from the tragedies of this world. We too often see other countries on the news and don't think a second thought, that could be America going through war. Right here in on American soil. We should also remember the people who lost their lives doing this time. Many of them were brave in their last moments remembering to pray and ask for forgiveness for not only themselves but also their trespassers. We should remember to live each day as if it were our last.

I have flown my flags every since that day in my front yard and at times on my automobile. My feelings about the American flag has definitely changed. My brother is a retired soldier and I knew that military fought for us, but never took into deep consideration how much they put their lives on the line everyday. May GOD be with each and everyone of them throughout their days.
