Remember

As I remember today the tragedy of 9/11 and the sadness and loss of our country, I am reminded of the ultimate peace amidst the storm. Jesus says in John 16:33; "I have told you these things so that in ME you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble; but take heart, I have overcome the world." The peace we can find in a relationship with Jesus Christ is our only hope. I am praying for the peace of our country and for those who have lost loved ones. May the painful memories of this day bring each of us closer to our Maker. May those that have not yet clung to the cross and surrendered their lives to Jesus do so today, for tomorrow is not promised. Where will you spend eternity? I plead with you do not wait another minute.

"But when the kindness and the love of our Savior toward man appeared, not by the works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life!"

Titus 3:4-6
