I hope people of all faiths and all walks of life were comforted to see members of Congress on the steps of the Capitol singing "God Bless America" and to see both houses of Congress begin their sessions with prayer ~!!! awww ~ PRAYER ~ talking to "Our Father," the creator ~
I am so thankful, to God ~ that a new perspective, and a new sense of hope, has emerged ~ one that lifts our country and our spirits up, rather than succumbing to the terrorists' goal of knocking us down and driving us apart. This has showed the nation that our children do need to pray in schools,~ we need to teach our children that "Our Father," loves them too ~
they need freedom to pray if they wish !!!! FREEDOM !!! While there is nothing we can do to bring the victims back~ there is much we can do to honor them and their sacrifices ~!!!! We can do that by taking action, each in our own way, to be helpful, whether by giving money, donating blood or lending a helping hand, keeping a candle lit,
and flying your AMERICAN flag ~ but most of all PLEASE PRAY !!!! We must remember that while life is fleeting there is reason to believe faith is enduring. We can do that by uniting with our country's leaders, and giving them our prayers and support. And we can do that by reminding ourselves that we do live in a great country, one of much LOVE ~ As President Bush said, this is indeed a test for our nation. Rather than just watch the events unfold and be angry or frustrated, let's all do what we can now to help our country deal with the current challenge And, in the months and years ahead, let's all recommit ourselves to build an even greater country. God bless you and your families ~ God bless America ~ God's Love And Light ~!!!! ~jb~
