Where were you on 9/11

I know this is a day late, but hopefully not a dollar short, I went to a church yesterday in Jersey and felt humbled of being asked to come on 9/11.  Just because of what happened ten years prior.  Where were you when the first towers hit, where were you when you first found out that something had happened in NYC.  I was sitting in a Library on the campus of Valley Forge Christian College, and had a friend come running in, to tell me that something has happened in NY.  So I went running back to my dorm, to call my home, and make sure everyone was okay.  I got my mom crying on the phone telling me that something has happened in the City.  I went into the chapel, seeing what was going on in the city was disturbing and a lot of people where crying.  It was very hard to try and get family members on the phone later in the day.  Ten years later, we lost a lot of people on that day, but we still remember what happened on that day as people who were around when Pearl Harbor happened I am sure remembered.  I usually give my testimony the first time I visit a church for the first time. Yesterday, I told them where I was that day, and I even asked God to help those in the room that may have had to deal with something on that day, or maybe still are.  So where were you on that day, what did you through on that day, your emotions, actions, reactions.  Let us remember that God has us right where He wants us to be.  Jeremiah 29:11 I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you hope and a future.
