Usually I have my days planned, even sometimes writing down what needs to be done and in what order. As I also ask for God’s involvement, I shouldn’t be surprised when my plans are superseded by his. Like today, my plans included a trip to the bank, post office and gas station. None of that worked out. No, today will be a day dedicated to solemn reflection, meditation and prayer. This day is September 11, a day to remember all those still suffering the losses of that horrific tragedy. This happened years ago but God hasn’t forgotten. He shares in the pain of those who lost husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers. It will never be just another anniversary of a bad day for them. And, neither is it for God.
Well-Laid Plans

Amen! I remember where I was and what I was doing. I know there are many days such as this in history. May God be merciful on them all. It is still etched deep in my mind and heart. Thanks Sheila!
