Dear Heavenly Father,
Today we remember with wounded hearts 9-11-01. We pause. We reflect on that day in our own lives. We remember those who were murdered. We remember those who gave their lives in service to others. We remember.
We remember what America was like before 9-11. We remember what the world was like before 9-11. We remember.
We pray for those who still suffer as a result of this attack. We pray for families, neighborhoods, cities and America who lost loved ones, friends, neighbors. We pray that You would continue to bring healing and comfort.
We pray for our Nation's enemies that they would come to know You. We pray that America will find it in her heart to forgive.
We remember how You did miracles on 9-11. We remember how You gave us strength to carry on in spite of our fears. We remember how You brought peace into new places as we united together, one Nation, under God. We remember that in spite of the pain and suffering, that in the end we learned to trust You, even in this.
We thank You that You heard the "cries of the children". Thank You that the darkness has been cleared and that You have restored peace in hearts. Thank You that they live in freedom and see justice and goodness once again. Thank You that their generation will remember and help to make America a better place.
We ask that You would bless America as it remembers 9-11 and turns its heart to You.
In Jesus Name, amen.
