Lord I Pray…With These Hands, With These Hand

One of the most horrific days of our US history happened on Sept 11th, 2001. This is the day we saw the twin towers, the symbols of strength and the symbols of New York city, come down before our very eyes live on T.V.

No one will ever forget that day, at least that is my hope. Inside of every disaster is the hands of God at work. Our Country pulled together as one and it was one of the most powerful times to be alive here in the US that I have ever experienced. Everything that seemed important, melted away for a while as we all reflected on what had just happened to us. I believe God gave us a chance to turn to him for the answers at that time and many did come back to God looking for answers and comfort.

In the midst of this tragedy, things that divided us were removed from the equation and instead of being a country that is red states and blue states, we became one state and one nation under god. Isn’t that how God had designed it to be?

Since then we have moved back into our old ways and the speed of ungodliness has rapidly grown here in the US and around the world. I feel that 9/11 was a call from God to us to come back to him and rally around the goodness that God has for you and me.

Watching our government at work and our people responding to them, we see more division today then ever. It rolls on and on and it is really sad to see. The health care reform bill just goes to show we have fallen back into the days of massive division in our country. The video link below just goes to show how divided and angry people are and remain.  Just click on the picture to see where we are today.

It is really really sad to see how separated we have become. Didn’t we see the opportunity that 9/11 brought to our country? Apparently not. God’s plan will continue to unfold as only God knows.

This being said, my heart still cries for the unity that we saw on 9/11. I will never forget the people rallying as one people and the incredible power behind this unity.

The old adage, Together we stand, divided we fall never held truer in my life in the dark contrast of the protesting going on in the town hall meetings that occured this summer and now the latest health care reform bill that has exploded into what you see in this video.

The last few days I have continuously been humming a song from the days of 9/11 .

There was a benefit concert to raise money after 9/11 and all of the world was watching. There was an artist that wrote a song for this event and that song continues to play out in my head recently. It is a cry out to God…It is about being one with God as a people and it was sung by Bruce Springsteen.

Enjoy the song below and may it help you remove the division of your heart and show you that we a people can gather around Our God And Savior whom we call LORD…that all things are possible and there is great comfort and joy in our Lord.

But the fact remains and the days grows darker as God is constantly being removed from the daily lives of our country.

The End times are going to happen the way God has said whether you are on board with his plan or not. But you can choose to worship our Lord with These hands..
