9/11

Psalm 34: 18 says, The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.

Today when I was starting our school day I was showing the kids the calendar and writing today's date on our white board- September 11th. Their lives began after the tragic events that mark this day in history. They will never know the intense emotions of this day as those who sat and watched in horror as the events unfold.

Someday they'll be old enough to comprehend the loss of that day. It is my hope that we will not forget and we will be able to train them to understand the greatness of God even through such horrible suffering and loss.
