“September 11, 2001, revealed heroism in ordinary people who might have gone through their lives never called upon to demonstrate the extent of their courage.” — Geraldine Brooks
“On September 11, I always take the day off. I want to be in a peaceful quiet place praying. It is a day I both mourn and celebrate.” — Genelle Guzman-McMillan, 9/11 Survivor
Do not forget to rejoice, for hope is always just around the corner. Hold up through the hard times that are coming, and devote yourselves to prayer. Romans 12:12 The Voice ~ Checking IN, My dear Friends, let us pray for our individual countries and for world peace. A shift is on the horizon. Grace and peace be upon you and yours.
At all times, pray by the power of the Spirit. Pray all kinds of prayers. Be watchful, so that you can pray. Always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Ephesians 6:18 New International Reader's Version
Hello, start your Tuesday with new smiles. Thank you for your gift of friendship. Thank you for making me laugh when I had almost forgotten how to be grateful. Gratitude is the best attitude. Today I give thanks to everyone in my life. My world is brighter and more beautiful because of you. Thank you for your comments. Your friendship is a special, generous gift, happily accepted, and deeply appreciated. Thank you for always being there. When life is sweet, say thanks and celebrate, and when life is bitter, say thanks and grow. Sometimes I just look up, smile, and say, "I know that was you. I wish you the most beautiful thing in your life: may you always be happy with love." Take care, Maria.
