RE: YOUR THOUGHTS ON 9/11 -

My thoughts on 9/11: It has drawn me closer to God and it has created a greater sense of awareness on my part that my probation can end any second - like those victims of 9/11!
I care how I die, the spiritual condition of my heart at the close of my probation and of course I seek to do His will each and every day so that the balances may not be against me on the day of judgment - I do not want to be found wanting!
Gradually the spirit of the Lord has withdrawn His hand from His people to awaken them - but we are too busy to even give Him a thought! I hear revenge - 'nuke the perpetrators' (vengeance is the Lord's; let's us rebuild (the tower of babel)the twin towers; claims of 'we are strong' - only God is strong and powerful; let us seek out Osama - misdirected search - seek the Lord first; they are busy forming coalitions and alliances (rubbish)- align oneself with Christ and see the results 'the battle is not yours but Mine, says the Lord.
With that, I quote this for your meditation:
"If my people, which are caled by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
The witch-hunt for Osama is a political ploy and the world is dancing to America's tune. Turn your eyes upon Jesus and the things of this world will grow strangely dim. My salvation is my one and only concern at this point in time and my only debt to society is love and prayer for those who are suffering, nothing else, and certainly no prayers for/to the dead!
