How many of us have heard that question "Where was your GOD when the
World
Trade Center and the Pentagon was attacked?" Well I know where my GOD was
the morning of September 11, 2001, GOD was very busy!

God was trying to discourage anyone from taking these flights. Those four
flights together could have held over 1000 passengers and there were only
266 aboard.

GOD was on 4 commercial flights giving terrified passengers the ability
to
stay calm. Not one of the family members who were called by a loved one
on
one of the high-jacked planes said that passengers were screaming in the
background. On one of the flights GOD was giving strength to passengers
to
try to overtake the highjackers.

GOD was busy trying to create obstacles for employees at the World Trade
Center. After all, only around 20,000 were at the towers when the first
jet
hit. Since the buildings held over 50,000 workers, this was a Miracle in
itself. How many of the people who were employed at the World Trade
Center
told the media that they were late for work or they had traffic delays.

GOD was holding up 2-110 story buildings so that 2/3 of the workers could
get out. I was so amazed that the top of the towers didn't topple when
the
jets impacted. And when they did fall, they fell inward. GOD didn't allow
them to topple over, as many more lives would have been lost.

And when the buildings went down, my GOD picked up almost 6,000 children
and
carried them home. Reassuring frighten children that the worst was over
and
the best was yet to come.

GOD sat down and cried that 19 children could have so much hate in their
hearts. That they didn't choose GOD, but another god that doesn't exist,
and
now they are lost forever.

GOD sent his children that are best trained for this disaster and had
them
save the few that were still alive, but unable to help themselves. And
then
sent many others to help in anyway they were needed.

GOD still isn't finished though, GOD held the love ones that were left
behind in his/her arms. GOD comforts them daily. GOD's other children are
given the strength to reach out to them and help them in any way they
can.

And I believe GOD will continue to help us in what is to come. GOD will
give
the people in charge of this great nation the strength and the wisdom to
do
the right thing. GOD would never leave us in our time of need.

So when anyone asks, "Where was your GOD on September 11", you can say
"everywhere"! And yes, although this is without a doubt the worst thing I
have seen in my life, I see God's miracles in every bit of it. I keep
praying for those who don't believe in GOD, every chance I have. I can't
imagine going through such a difficult time and not believing in GOD.
Life
would be hopeless!

I believe that we are blessed to be able to see the hand of God in these circumstances. He is mighty and faithful in all things...but it is so hard for some to see Him and His goodness right now. I found this scripture that seems to fit this topic...

Ephesians 1:18-23

18)"I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
19)and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might
20)which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places
21)far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in the one to come.
22)And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church,
23)which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Let's all pray together that the eyes of hearts everywhere are opened to see the truth of God and His power and goodness in all things. <img src="smile.gif" border="0" alt="" />
