On Tuesday, September 11, 2001, I was attending my Western Civilization class at a local community college. I walked into class, took out my folder, and waited for others to arrive and for class to start. A friend of mine walked in frantic while talking on the phone with her husband. "Did you hear? Did you hear? turn on the TV. The Twin Towers...a plane crashed into them." Our professor looked around the class, shook her head in disbelief, then quickly turned our classroom television set on. There it was. The news reports had worry painted on their faces and in their voices. The newsflash on the bottom with bold text streaming from left to right with the explanation of what had happened and what was still occurring. I remember thinking, praying: God help us! God help them!
Matthew 5:3,4 ~
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
