My heart goes out to the families of those killed and injured in this senseless act of terror. And still today so many are being effected by the war which continues to go on. Yet out of the ashes and pain and heartache there was a glimmer of hope. A nation which had grown complacent was stirred into action. Patriotism was reawakened, and even those who never believed there was a God began to cry out to Him for understanding and grace. Many prayed who had never prayed before, and people reached out to strangers all around them. We were no longer separate communities but one nation under God, indivisible.
Now, seven years later, as we all sit in remembrance and mourn for those lost, admire those who showed bravery, and hold out hope for those still in battle, I pray that this date will serve to keep complacency at bay and draw the nation together to continue the fight for liberty and justice for all. God Bless.

Hi Becky,
I still get that tugging and ache in my heart till today even after 7 years of seeing the photos or listening to the news. I remember getting up in the morning and my husband watching the TV and the look upon his face, I knew it had to be something really bad. And then I saw it for myself and my body just ached so much within, no words could express what I was feeling, I just could not imagine what those families were feeling or going through.
I think everyones life changed on that day one way or another. God bless America, God bless us all.

The memory of that day is seared into my memory and still provokes tears. Some of those tears are joyful as I saw spiritual rebirth envelop many in our world. What some intended for evil, God turned to good.
