THE DAILY BLUEPRINT FOR 9-11-06

9/11 - 5 YEARS LATER

2nd CORINTHIANS 4:16
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man parish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day!

Today as I reflected on the events of 5 years ago - tears formed in my eyes- this is a very painful day for many -a day when lives where forever changed -the events of this day are still fresh in our minds -and yet life has gone on - during those first weeks following 9-11 -the churches where full - the flags came out and everyone was on the same page- but as with all things- this did not last - today we are a nation that is very much divided and according to JESUS Himself - a divided nation cannot stand - while all this is true- there are those of us who support our President and what he done to stop further attacks against our nation -

Today it's 5 years later - many things have happened since that day - people have died - people have been born - life has gone back to normal whatever normal may be -today many are in pain -they miss those whom they lost - the pain is very real - those who committed this act against America and her children - will one day face God - and HIS wrath is greater then any -but we should not gloat at this fact -but we need to pray for them - pray for those familles who lost loved ones that way as well - We are all God's children - living in a world that is dominated by satan - I place all the blame for these attacks on him - and him alone - God allowed this for His purpose - not the purposes of satan - God can take something bad and make it good - these 5 years have not been easy and time does not heal all wounds - only God can do that - take a moment today to reflect on where you where when you heard the news - think about those who lost their lives - the heroes who put their lives on the line to save others - read the following poem - visit the website - and pray - American need us on our knees- God bless America -

9-11 will go down in history as the day part of America died - God I am sure wept on this day - lets stand together in CHRIST-
Thank you all - in CHRIST, Daniel

TWO THOUSAND ONE, NINE ELEVEN (2001-911) Two thousand one, nine eleven Three thousand plus arrive in heaven As they pass through the gate, Thousands more appear in wait A bearded man with stovepipe hat Steps forward saying, "Lets sit, lets chat" They settle down in seats of clouds A man named Martin shouts out proud "I have a dream!" and once he did The Newcomer said, "Your dream still lives." Groups of soldiers in blue and gray Others in khaki, and green then say "We're from Bull Run, Yorktown, the Maine" The Newcomer said, "You died not in vain." From a man on sticks one could hear "The only thing we have to fear. The Newcomer said, "We know the rest, trust us sir, we've passed that test." "Courage doesn't hide in caves You can't bury freedom, in a grave," The Newcomers had heard this voice before A distinct Yankees twang from Hyannisport shores A silence fell within the mist Somehow the Newcomer knew that this Meant time had come for her to sayWhat was in the hearts of the five thousand plus that day "Back on Earth, we wrote reports, Watched our children play in sports Worked our gardens, sang our songs Went to church and clipped coupons We smiled, we laughed, we cried, we fought Unlike you, great we're not" The tall man in the stovepipe hat Stood and said, "Don't talk like that! Look at your country, look and see You died for freedom, just like me" Then, before them all appeared a scene Of rubbled streets and twisted beams Death, destruction, smoke and dust And people working just 'cause they must Hauling ash, lifting stones, Knee deep in hell, but not alone "Look! Blackman, Whiteman, Brownman, YellowmanSide by side helping their fellow man!" So said Martin, as he watched the scene "Even from nightmares, can be born a dream." Down below three firemen raised The colors high into ashen haze The soldiers above had seen it before On Iwo Jima back in '45 The man on sticks studied everything closely Then shared his perceptions on what he saw mostly "I see pain, I see tears, I see sorrow -- but I don't see fear." "You left behind husbands and wives Daughters and sons and so many lives are suffering now because of this wrong But look very closely. You're not really gone. All of those people, even those who've never met you All of their lives, they'll never forget you Don't you see what has happened? Don't you see what you've done? You've brought them together, together as one. With that the man in the stovepipe hat said "Take my hand," and from there he led three thousand plus heroes, Newcomers to heaven On this day, two thousand one, nine eleven Author UNKNOWN What a shame! DON'T KEEP SUCH MEANINGFUL WORDS AND FEELINGS TO YOURSELF. PLEASE PASS THIS ONE ALONG. On this day, please wear red, white and blue to work or school to show your support for those who lost their lives on 9~11~01 and to honor the heroes who worked to save them and the families left behind. At noon your time on September 11, 2006, no matter where you are or what you are doing, stop, put your hand on your heart, and say the Pledge of Allegiance out loud or to yourself and say a prayer for our nation. In addition, for those of us who drive to work, please drive with your headlights on to also give honor and remembrance to those who perished on September 11th. If all of us do this together in every time zone round the world, we will have a powerful chain of thoughts surrounding us. Please keep this going to your friends and family. By September 11, 2006 hopefully enough people will have read this and will join together in unity

On Monday, September 11th, 2006, an American flag should be displayed outside every home, apartment, office, and store in the United States. Every individual should make it their duty to display an American flag on this fifth anniversary of our country's worst tragedy. We do this in honor of those who lost their lives on 9/11, their families, friends and loved ones who continue to endure the pain, and those who today are fighting at home and abroad to preserve our cherished freedoms. In the days, weeks and months following 9/11, our country was bathed in American flags as citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood shoulder-to-shoulder against terrorism. Sadly, those flags have all but disappeared. Our patriotism pulled us through some tough times and it shouldn't take another attack to galvanize us in solidarity. Our American flag is the fabric of our country and together we can prevail over terrorism of all kinds. Action Plan: So, here's what we need you to do... (1) Forward this email to everyone you know (at least 11 people). Please don't be the one to break this chain. Take a moment to think back to how you felt on 9/11 and let those sentiments guide you. (2) Fly an American flag of any size on 9/11. Honestly, Americans should fly the flag year-round, but if you don't, then at least make it a priority on this day. Thank you for your participation. God Bless You and God Bless America!
