WHERE WAS
GOD?
I had a very dear friend question
my faith in God right after the terrorist attact
on America.
His question was simply put, "where is your
God today?
He was very hurt, as all Americans
were, so I tried not to react defensively.
Since that moment I have prayed and grieved over
the disastrous events.
However, I believe I have the answer.
I know where my God was the
morning of September 11, 2001!
He was very busy.
First of all, he was trying to
discourage anyone from taking this flight.
Those four flights together held
over 1000 passengers, and there were only 266
aboard.
He was on 4 commercial flights
giving terrified passengers the ability to stay
calm.
Not one of the family members who was called by a
loved one on one of the highjacked planes said
that passengers were screaming in the background.
On one of the flights He was
giving strength to passengers to try to ocertake
the high-jackers.
He was busy trying to create
obstacles for employees at the World Trade
Center.
After all, only around 20000 were at the towers
when the first jet hit.
Since the buildings hold over 50000 workers, this
was a miracle in itself.
How many of the people who were employed at the
WTC told the media that
they were late for work or they had traffic
delays.
He was holding up two 110 story
buildings so that 2/3 of the workers could get
out.
I was so amazed that the top of
the towers didn't topple when the jets impacted.
Although this is without a doubt
the worst thing I have seen in my life,
I can see miracles in every bit of it.
I can't imagine going through such a difficult
time and not believing in God.
Life would be hopeless.
