Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort. He comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction, through the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ overflow to us, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.
2 Corinthians 1:3-5 (CSB)
As we remember those we lost on this day nineteen years ago, let’s sit in these words from 2 Corinthians. The Father of mercies and the God of all comfort is with us. He has not forgotten our grief nor the pain that continues to linger from the aftermath of tragedy. And as we are comforted by Him, may we offer the same tenderness to others today.

We remember those we who lost love ones. We have to also pray for those that caused the pain that day. That they will see their need of a Saviour. Their need to repent. See the sadness they that they have left behind. People who have lost love ones all types years ago. See of their needs to get saved. Plus for forgive if especially saved. As it says in God’s word the Bible too do that. As if you don’t it only eats you up. If you are someone who has lost someone on this day or you know someone that has lost someone they love on this day. God knows your hurt. God has not forgotten you in your Grief. God’s loving arms are round you. God knows your pain and hurt. God will help you get through it. You will not forget you. God he Loves you he there for you. You are special to him. He knows all you been through since the first day it happened. You can talk to him in prayer anytime. It just like we’re I live we remember and pray for families who lost love ones on Poppy Sunday years ago. We pray for the families and the people who did who what it. That they will get saved. Repent for their wrong. Forgive them. As God would want us to do that. If we don’t it only eats us up. Love Dawn Ferguson-Little praying for 9/11 xxx
