Sept 11 and Heaven

as we commemorate the 10th anniversary of a day we'll always remember over three thousand lives taken on the eleventh day of September but for the grace of God it might have been me to have been one of those lives taken away in the midst of that tragedy life is a series of sequences and events that take place and I know that as a child of Christ I'm living under His grace at the time I had a job that was located in tower seven but on that day I was in Brooklyn or I might have died and gone to heaven safe in the borough of Kings working at the primary election polls far away from the events that on New York took such a toll the nation and the world were shook to their foundations that anyone would dare to strike at the very heart of our nation two airliners purposely driven into the World Trade Center Twin Towers an attack on American soil in the early morning hours and as I sit in church today on our annual Homecoming day I reflect on the fact that many will never come home again mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, co-workers, family and friends and while I sit in this anointed pew the awesomeness of the glory of God in me has been renewed a day to remember as we share the communion of our Lord Christ a day to also remember a day that forever changed our lives
