I remember that day as I was awakened at 7:00am (Pacific Time)by my neighbor Carolyn Lux in apt. 202 banging on my door repeatedly saying "Carol, wake up. Our country is being attacked!!!!" I woke up in a daze and when I opened the door and saw her crying and all of a sudden she threw her arms around me and hugged me. She said "Start praying!" I proceeded to turn the tv on and when I saw the second plane go into the WTC, my heart dropped and I thought I would go into hysterics! The emotions I felt at that point I cannot describe in words. I really felt that the world was coming to an end and that God has finally started the Revelation and it has come to pass. I started praying for my family, friends and all those people who were already gone.


From that day on, I do now look at life differently. Each day I try to do something good for someone and I also decided to move back home to be with my mom and spend some quality time with her after 20 years. I do not feel as secure as I did and I know that this is the way it must be from now on.


To all my brothers and sisters and friends in America, please pray for our country that GOd will forgive and that one day we will once again have PEACE.

AMEN.
