The Day that Changed the World

9-11 On this day that changed the world and especially North Americans, when so many lives were lost; lives of families, friends, strangers were forever changed ~ to an attack that remains incomprehensible ~ a horrific attack. My thoughts and prayers go out to all that were affected by this, and especially to those who lost loved ones.

Remember not only today ... But everyday the Precious Gift of life that was STOLEN on this day.

Pray also for the lost souls to find peace within themselves ~ for then they will be able to see PEACE, and LIVING in harmony will create a better WORLD for all.

There will be many images of this horrific attack , so I've chosen to focus on PEACE ... for a better world!

I think Mr. Lennon had the right idea ...
Lennon rehearses "Give Peace a Chance" in Montreal, Canada, in 1969









Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. Psalm 34:14


Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; 
not as the world gives do I give to you.  John 14.27

    Dearest Celia,

    Great post! We have celebrated today the birthday of an 8 year old boy in Germany. Different but the memories of all those that lost so much remains...
    Love to you,

    Mariette

    There will be no peace on earth until the Prince of Peace returns. We need to pray for that day.
    Blessings,
