That day started as any other day would have except the telephone rang and it was my best friend Debbie Chandler. I home school my grandson Joshua and everyone knows not to call until after 3:00 P.M. So when the phone rang i knew something wasn't right. When I answered the phone Debbie cried out for me to start praying for the people and our country, she said that we had been attacked and that we had to get before God and we didn't have time to waste that peoples life's depended upon it.
I turned the television on, and what I saw made me cry. I called my grandson into the living room and ask him to pray with me. We prayed for peoples life's and for the families that were losing there love one's and then we prayed for our President.
I cried and prayed the rest of the day, and am still crying for those who lost family. I know how it feels to lose someone suddenly and through the hands of someone else. This Sept.11,2002 I watched a special on television showing all the babies born to those who had died that day. It was another night of crying, but there was a difference this time, I watched God's rewards for He said the fruit of the womb was His reward. The theif slipped by and stole from us, but thank God for His rewards and giving us new life.
Sept.11,2001 happening brought about something I thought I would never see. Members of our government stood on government steps and sang "GOD BLESS AMERICA". I thank God for President Bush and for having a God believing President and one who knew how to pray and to turn to God for divine wisdom. I pray that he will continue to do so.
