Heavenly Father,
We praise You and thank You for Your Love, Your Goodness, and Your Power. There is much for us to learn from the events of 9/11/01, and we pray that You will lead us to Truth and Understanding.
We pray for the souls of the dead and the living, that the innocent may find Joy and Peace and the evil may find Judgement in Your Eternal Kingdom.
We pray for the families of the deceased, for rescuers and witnesses injured and traumatized, and for all of us who were stricken and wounded by the incredible malice and viciousness of the evil of these events.
Help us to understand how we Christians must respond to evil: when do we flee as Jesus told His Disciples, when do we sacrifice ourselves as Jesus did, and when and how can we oppose evil as Jesus opposed the money-changers in the Temple?
Help us to be patient with our fellow Christians as we each seek to find where we draw our own personal 9/11line against evil:
against terrorists
against abortion
against thieves
against reckless behavior
against atheists
Help us to understand whether and how an evil person can be healed, or must they be imprisoned until they can no longer do evil, or destroyed?
Help us understand what it means to love our enemies, our neighbors, and one another.
Guide us, we pray, today and everyday, to Love, Faith, and Hope, in Jesus’ name. amen
