"Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. I will abide in thy tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of thy wings. Selah. (Psalm 61:1-4)."

A Christian Response to the Tragedy of a Lifetime!

Written by Peggie C. Bohanon

God Is in Control!

Hurt, anger, disbelief, shock--the madness of a terrorism attack displaces any personal concerns of our lives this day, September 11, 2001. It doesn't matter what we're having for dinner, where we're going, what we will wear, who's mad at whom in the family. All eyes are on TV; all ears on radio--Americans are glued to any source of news they can find. It is indeed a sad, tragic day in the nation we love.

So what should be our response? Do we cringe in fear? Do we react in anger? Do we run and hide? No--we fall to our knees in prayer for those who have lost loved ones--whose world is shattered and broken beyond belief. We pray for our President, for our leaders, for those giving medical assistance. And we pray for our beloved land, America--that this horrible tragedy will bring our nation back to God, back to moral values, back to the altar--where we all belong this day.

God has not abdicated His throne. He will not forever tolerate man's inhumanity to man. He sees, He knows, He understands--and He still reigns. Whatever has happened this day, whatever happens tomorrow, He is still in control. Nothing escapes His watchful eye and He promises to hear the prayers of His children. Let us look to the Lord, Who IS our help and our refuge in the time of storm. And while we pray for those who sorrow, let us also pray for those who hate...may God save their never-dying souls.

"Father in heaven, hear the prayers of Your people this day. Comfort the grieving; comfort Your people, heal our land. Awaken America to its need of You--awaken OUR hearts to pray and intercede for a revival of godly sorrow, repentance and new commitment to God; may a revival of righteousness sweep across our land. Bring America back to God, In Christ's Name, Amen."
