Yesterday signified a tragic event that happened 18 years ago. We responded swiftly. Our flags were displayed on our homes, we stood united in arms and faith, no matter the denomination. There were no party lines, no color barrier, just people that mourned together as a nation and became stronger.
Let us reflect on the lives lost, let's say a prayer for our first responders and their unwavering commitment, our men and women in the armed forces, who put themselves first in front of country. Let us continue to support each other, stand strong together and let no man put asunder. May God Bless
America.
