911 Remember and Honor

Today we remember and honor the lives lost as well as the heroic efforts to save lives on 911 from the attack on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center.  Fire fighters, police, first responders and ordinary citizens ran into the burning Twin Towers risking their lives and in many cases sacrificing their lives to save others. Soon after other stories of heroism and sacrifice emerged at the Pentagon and over the skies in Pennsylvania. How we chose to respond to the violence and hatred and injustice around us, defines who we are and how we live. Let us be inspired to live out the best values and ideals that guide us.  Let us choose to live our best and give our best. 
 
“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (John 15:13)
 
(prayer of the week)
Lord, we remember and honor the service and sacrifice of those who put duty before self, living out a sacrificial love; we remember and honor lives lost, hearts broken, tears shed, and dreams shattered.  Grant us grace to honor all through living our best and giving our best, through your grace and to your glory, amen.
 
Have a blessed week—Pastor TJ
