As we approach 9/11's anniversary, newly declassified photographs of the events at Ground Zero have been released.
The images bring it all back. They remind us of the thousands who said good bye to their families and friends that morning and boarded the ill-fated planes or went to work at the Pentagon and World Trade Center.
And they reminded me of something I read many years ago. Three little questions:
1) Who would you call if you learned you had only 3 minutes left to live?
2) What would you say?
3) Why are you waiting?
PRAYER: Lord, I ask You to fit my tongue with your readiness and grace. Help me tell the ones I love how much they mean to me. Help me reach out to those with whom I am in disagreement so that we may find forgiveness and peace. Guide my thoughts, intentions and words. Help me to remember that each day is a precious gift that You have made. Give me Your eternal perspective so that I can see how my time upon this earth is to be used, and how I may live it in mercy and love. Amen.
"Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin." Mother Teresa
And gently lead those that are with young. Isaiah 40:11
