Today is September 11, 2008. Today is a solemn day. Today, on this seventh anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, we remember the heroism and sacrifice of countless Americans, and reflect upon how our great country, and the world, has changed forever.
As today cable news networks replay heart wrenching footage of that fateful day, and recount the events that unfolded, and as thousands attend memorial services at all three crash sights, let us never forget. Let us never forget how one nation under God, turned to Him in that time of monumental tragedy. Let us never forget that on that day we were not marked by our religious beliefs, political persuasions, cultural opinions, or spheres of influence. On that and many days that would follow, we were all Americans. One nation under God.
It didn’t take long for America to return to its Godless reasoning and rhetoric. What seemed like a genuine, national cry for God, proved to be only a temporary acknowledgement of the need for Him that is so persistently resisted in the hearts of people. However, let us never forget that we have always been and will always be ONE NATION UNDER GOD.
Take time today to pray for the United States of America. May God send revival to our great country. May He pour His Spirit out upon the streets of our nation. May the next spiritual awakening not be a reaction to a national crisis, but a realization of the power of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
