Five Years







"If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray..."



Four airplanes, three buildings, and a field -
They will forever be engraved in our memories.
The sacrifice of those fallen,
the courage of those left behind.
The fear, the hate, the confusion, and the...
Prayers?

Five years since the tragedy,
Five years since the heroics.
Five years to mourn,
Five years to rebuild,
Five years to...
Forget?

"God bless America" was our cry,
Heard from every corner of our country.
Sworn Atheists and devout Believers
Together sought comfort in that phrase;
But why should He bless...
Us?

Five years have passed.
Five years -
But what has come of it?
"God bless America" -
Should not America bless God...
First?




"...and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, ..then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land."
