Growing up, I used to hear teachers and other adults say “I’ll never forget where I was when _____ happened”. For some it was the Kennedy assassination, while for others is was Dr. King’s assassination; that phrase was rarely associated with a positive event and it never occurred to me that I’d have one of those moments.
Do you remember where you were on 9/11? Do you remember what raced through your mind when you saw the images of the planes striking the World Trade Center & the one where passengers became soldiers and altered plans for the Pentagon? What were some of the initial phrases you uttered? Mine where “what in the world” followed by a plea for help to the only one who I knew saw every plan and who knew the hearts of those involved. 9-1-1 is the number we call for help during emergencies that can be managed by earthly resources but how do you obtain help for those things you can’t control? My suggestion, call on the One who is limitless. His power has no boundaries or geographic limitations, His reign is without term limitations and there is no enemy who can surprise or defeat Him (Psalm 121:2; Hebrews 4:16). One of the most amazing things to me about this One is He cares about us. He is not an absent entity who can’t intervene; this One thought enough of us to provide for our present and our future. How do we secure His help? In my preacher voice, I’m glad you asked. . . call Him. It is as simple as that, ask Him and you too can have access to One who is able to provide the ultimate in assistance. Blessings, Rev. Antoinette
