9/11

I don't think anyone will forget September 11, 2001. I just watched a video of a woman taking a video from another building..at first she was fairly calm and explaining what happened..then another plane came out of nowhere and crashed into the 2nd tower.
Then she started screaming as well as the other people in the room, "OH MY GOD, ITS TERRORISTS!! What do we do?!?"
I remember when I found out about it. The sirens in OKC started sounding and my dad started freaking out, and since there wasn't any bad weather, he knew it could be something much more serious.
It was on every channel, people saying, "twin towers! Twin towers!"
And to think people saw that up close..
Today my mom and I were talking about 9/11 when Kelsey piped in and said, "So what exactly happened on September 11?"
Then it dawned on me that these kids under the age of 12 don't even remember that day, and some not even born yet.
Folks, do not EVER forget what happened. Ever. Tell your kids, tell your siblings. This is something that will be in school history books.
I saw a man on a bridge this morning waving a big American flag. Thank you, sir, for your rememberance.
We will never forget.

With God and A Little Caffiene

Oh, I'm so tired this morning..getting up early and staying up late is really taking it's toll on me. I'm realizing that I need God more than I think..I'm so used to going through life on my own that I get confused when I think about the idea of resting in Him.
So I've gone a week or two avoiding that topic with God. But last night I gave in. I set my school books aside and let myself relax.
How we take such things as this for granted! Just sitting there letting my exhausted self chill for a while, and knowing it was ok, meant everything to me.
Isn't it funny how God knows stuff like that?
Even though last night was yet another sleepless night, I think I can get through today.
With a little caffeine;)
