Hey!
I was reading a post today on Facebook about September 11, 2001.
The first thing that popped into my head about that day was the poem I wrote for the assembly at school. I hadn't thought about that in years!!!
I went searching the internet, because I knew I had posted it online at some point in my life.
Guess what?!
I found it! And a bunch of others that I wrote back then.
We were studying poetry in Communications class and I had to write poems.
I went through a phase after that and wrote a few more poems. I've posted them over here.
However,
Here is the one I wrote for America
America
America, 50 states, 1 nation
America, full of freedom
America, struck my terrorism
America, 50 states, 1 nation
All Unite to fight terrorism
America, full of pride, faith, hope, sorrow
America, stong, hopeful we will recover
America, freedom forever
America, 50 states, 1 nation, all united
Freedom forever!
I will never forget September 11, 2001, and how scared I felt. I knew no one at any of the sites that were attacked, but I felt like my world was falling apart.
Looking back, I can see why I would have felt like my world was falling apart, my country that I love, had fallen under attack, and was headed to war. And I didn't truly know my Lord and Savior.
If I would have died at that time, I would have gone to hell, I'm sure of it.
I hadn't accepted Christ. I hadn't admitted to being a sinner and needing a savior.
I am so thankful that now, no matter what, I know I'll be in heaven, because now, I know Him.
I know He loves me and I love him.
Do you know Him? See you there!
Would you like to know Him? Reach out to your local church, find a bible study, find someone who knows him and ask for help! You are LOVED! Please know that!
