So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11
Today, September 11, was a day of encouraging posts on Facebook. We simply remembered all that were lost in the 9/11 tragedy. It was a day of encouraging messages of honor. We were mourning with those who mourned, rejoicing with the survivors, honoring all who give and have given their lives for our freedom.
The Bible says, how good is a timely word (Proverbs 15:23). Consider what would your last post on Facebook be, what would be the last word you said to your loved ones? Would they be words of encouragement or defeat? Yes there will be days where we are frustrated and angry but we must still consider what we want to leave behind. We should find ways to encourage and lift up one another.
Today, in honor of 9/11, tell your loved ones how much you love them and have patience and forgiveness for those who may have hurt you. May the Lord teach us to number our days (Psalm 90:12) and live each day in love as if today could be our last.
Never forget 9/11 and remember to pray for the families of the victims, for all effected by this act of terror and for our nation.
