 NEVER FORGET: Seventeen Years Later We Need To Remember The Real Lesson The Tragedy Of 9/11 Taught Us

 

Nearly 3,000 people left for work that day for their offices in the Twin Towers, and they never came back. They stepped out of thier homes and into eternity. But they were part of the larger group of roughly 250,000 people that died each and every day across the world. Life is short, tomorrow is not guaranteed but neither is the rest of today.  Every single day is precious gift from God, how will you spend it? 

Unable to get up, she softly repeated the same words over and over. She cried “The towers have fallen, no…no…how can this be? It all just collapsed…it’s all gone.”, as soft teardrops began to run down her face. It was in that moment when I knew nothing would ever be the same again
How well I remember this 9/11 day 17 years ago, when both towers of the World Trade Center were brought down. I remember the amazing and perfectly cornflower-blue sky that started the day, and how it would seem at such odds with the events that would shortly follow.
