I too was shocked and angry about the recent attack on American soil. I NEVER thought that I would see the day that something like this would happen IN AMERICA. It's really scary because the third bombing (of the Petagon in Arlington, VA) was in the state of Virginia). I live here in Richmond. I feel soooo sorry for any and everyone who was DIRECTLY effected by this event.
I will say that given all that other countries/nations go through, I'm extremely PROUD to be an AMERICAN. I've yet to figure out the THOUGHT process of these terrorists. Their purpose is to fight and/or DIE for the cause. Yet I see that they cease to realize that if one is DEAD, there is no way to help see the cause through. I'm totally lost about that concept.
I know that Americans are saddened and angry. I'll be the FIRST to admit that my feelings reflect this also. But...like my Bishop said on yesterday, we need to remember who we must turn to at this time. JESUS is the saving name. I pray that those who perished were able to "get things straight" with God before their lives were taken.
GOD HAVE MERCY ON ALL OF US AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!
