September 11, 2001

It began as just another day in the world. Sure you had your problems here and there but there was nothing like the events that would later unfold. Children were getting on buses to be taken to school. They waved goodbye to their parents; parents waved back. Husbands and wives went their separate ways to work thinking it was just another day.

But then came along this pebble. It's a pebble that shows up in someone’s life every now and than, and its purpose is to send out a ripple effect that’ll send someone in a completely different direction in their life. And on what was supposed to be just another September 11; that pebble struck at the very heart of America.

It has been six years since the 9/11 tragedy. It was on that Tuesday morning the two hijacked airplanes struck the Twin Towers. Another hijacked plane struck the Pentagon; and thanks to the bravery of a few passengers another plane unfortunately crashed into a Pennsylvania field- missing whatever its intended target was.

With every passing anniversary we remember the lives lost. We continue to pray for the families who loss their loved ones. And while many of us did not lose anyone on that day, we all were affected in one way or another. So we pray for the families who continue to grieve on this day of remembrance, and we thank God for another day of life. And we also pray that we will never see another day like September 11, 2001.
