9/11

there was a police escort of over 1000 motorcycles through the center of my town this evening. it was really nice, i raised my hand out of my car window to do the ''rock on'' symbol, and the ones that saw it bowed their heads and did it back. it was very surreal.

my mom cried

thats awesome
 
No one at my school cared or mentioned about 9/11. >:(

Well.......I gave my thanks to troops and prayed to those poor families that lost loved ones on 9/11.....
 
9/11 is the day I will never forget. The worst sudden death of innocent life happened on that fateful day. The firefighters who died on that day gave me the willingness to become one myself..which is what I'll be doing next semester (fire academy). I wrote FDNY 343 on my hand today to honor the 343 firefighters that died that day. Unfortunately, nobody I was around knew what it meant.

When I am called to duty, God
Wherever flames may rage;
Give me the strength to save some life
Whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child
Before it is to late;
Or save an older person
From the horror of that fate.
Enable me to be alert,
And hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently,
To put the fire out.
And if according to my fate
I am to lose my life;
Please bless with Your protecting hand
My children and my wife.
 
I remember that after 9-11, this little story thing was very popular.

Have you ever thought, "Where was God on 9/11 when the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were attacked?" Well, I know where my God was on the morning of September 11, 2001, and He was very busy!

He was discouraging people from taking those four flights. Together they could accommodate more than 1,000 passengers, yet there were only 266 aboard. He was on those four flights giving the terrified passengers the ability to stay calm. Not one of the people who was called by a loved one on one of the hijacked planes mentioned that passengers were panicked, nor was there any screaming in the background. And on one of the flights, God gave strength to the passengers to overcome the hijackers.

God was also busy creating obstacles to prevent people who worked in the WTC from getting to work on time. The work day had begun, more than 50,000 people worked in the two towers, yet only 20,000 were at their desks. On that beautiful morning, God created scores of unexpected traffic delays, subway delays, and commuter train delays. A PATH train packed with commuters was stopped at a signal just short of the WTC and was able to return to Jersey City. And far more meetings were scheduled elsewhere than was usual.

God held up each of the two mighty towers for a half hour so that the people on the lower floors could get out. And when He finally let go, He caused the towers to fall inward rather than to topple over, which would have killed so many more people. The foundations of six surrounding buildings were demolished by the fall of the towers, but God held them up for many hours until all the occupants were safely evacuated.

And when the WTC and Pentagon buildings went down, my God picked up almost 3,500 of His children and carried them to their home for all eternity. He also sat down and cried that 19 of His children could have so much hate in their hearts, that they did not choose him, but another god that doesn't exist, and now they are lost forever.

He sent people trained in dealing with earthly disasters to save those that were injured. And he sent in thousands of others to help in any way they were needed. And He brought people together across the world in a way that moved thousands to tears and hundreds of thousands to prayer—and caused millions to turn to the one true living God.

He still isn't finished. Every day He comforts those who lost loved ones. He is encouraging others to reach out to those who don't know Him or believe in Him. He is giving the leaders of our great nation the strength and conviction to do the right thing, to follow His will, not a popular poll.

So if anyone ever asks, "Where was your God on 9/11?" you can say, "He was everywhere! And, in fact, he is everywhere today and every day." Without a doubt, this was the worst catastrophe most of us have ever seen. I can't imagine getting through such a difficult time without God at my side. Without God, life would be hopeless.

Some people think there are faces in the smoke representing Satan :o i think its a total coincidence.

I find it a bit odd that the plain goes in to the tower and then explodes instead of exploding straight away on impact i think bombs were planted but then again i dont know much about planes and how they work.

Well there's people that believe that if you fold a dollar bill a certain way, it looks like the smoldering towers.

Keep in mind the engines of the plane are on the wings, not the nose, and it wouldn't explode immediatly either.

What really makes me mad are the people who think that it's all one big government conspiracy. C'mon, is it that difficult to believe that a plane was hijacked and crashed into a tower?

I agree completely. It's just a way for people to find some way to blame Bush for something else.
