Where I was 10 years ago!

As I reflect on this day, my heart and prayers go out to those who will ever be affected by this truly humbling experience. As I hear the stories of those that were there, those that ran from the terror of the falling towers, and the families of those who lost loved ones, my heart sympathize in trying to understand one another's unhappiness or suffering, especially in this time of grief. As I stood there 10 years ago, in Prattville Alabama, I was froze with unbelief of the sight. Who would with all the evil in their hearts do such a selfish act. I recalled later that day opening up the scriptures to find answers, answers the that question WHY?
Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
There is no answer for why people do bad things.
We can only find hope.
Ether 12:4
4 Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.
My prayers go out to all those that hope for a better world, yea when the Lord returns and brings the fold together.
