Today is a day of remembrance...

I prayed for our Nation today. I prayed for the children that lost their parents and for the ones that never got to see their dad's and I prayed for the parents who lost a child. I wept today for the families who had to deal with so much tragedy in their lives 10 years ago. Today as we remember, we move forward some with mixed feelings, some with sadness and some with a heart of worship. God was there that day He held all those people in His arms and today He will hold their families. Even through all of this with our hearts in different places remember this...God is always there He never fails or turns away. God knows our hearts, He sees into the very depths of our being and can bring peace. Today is a day of remembrance but, lets not do it with mourning lets do it with joy and thanksgiving. Psalm 100 says Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations. (NKJ) We will never forget that day but, neither will God. As we go about our day, say a prayer for all of the families who lost someone that day. I have a feeling that the ones who lost their lives would want a day of celebrating them, not mourning their deaths. For those who lost someone, I do not know who you are but, today I prayed for you, I prayed peace, comfort and joy. Remember the ones you loved for why you loved them, As we remember you.


That's my thought for the day,
