May We Never Forget

 

"Tonight, I ask for your prayers for all those who grieve, for the children whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose sense of safety and security has been threatened. And I pray they will be comforted by a Power greater than any of us, spoken through the ages in Psalm 23:

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for you are with me.

This is a day when all Americans from every walk of life unite in our resolve for justice and peace. America has stood down enemies before, and we will do so this time. None of us will ever forget this day, yet we go forward to defend freedom and all that is good and just in our world.

Thank you. Good night. And God bless America."

George W. Bush

9.11 Address to the Nation

 

My thoughts and prayers go out to all who lost loved ones on 9.11.01 and to all those who are fighting to protect this great nation.

Thank you for posting this. Despite what many said about Bush, I liked him and he did many great things. This part of his speech always touches me. When I read this on FB to my husband, I fought back tears. I will never forget, but I am so glad that it is now 9/12.

I cannot think of anyone else that would. Post this poignant post! God bless you!
