"Today is the day the Lord hath made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it."
Psalms 118:24
2. Dress Up !!
The best way to dress up is to put on a
smile.
A smile is an inexpensive way to improve
your looks.
"The Lord does not look at the things man
looks at.
Man looks at outward appearance;
but the Lord looks at the heart."
I Samuel 16:7
3. Shut Up!!
Say nice things and learn to listen.
God gave us two ears and one mouth, so He
must have meant
for us to do twice as much listening as
talking.
"He who guards his lips guards his soul."
Proverbs 13:3
4. Stand Up!!
For what you believe in.
Stand for something or you will fall for
anything.
"Let us not be weary in doing good; for at the
proper time,
we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do
good..."
Galatians 6:9-10
5. Look Up !!
To the Lord.
"I can do everything through Christ who
strengthens me".
Philippians 4:13
6. Reach Up !!
For something higher.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and lean not unto your own understanding.
In all your ways, acknowledge Him,
and He will direct your path."
Proverbs 3:5-6
7. Lift Up !!...
Your Prayers.
"Do not worry about anything; instead PRAY ABOUT
EVERYTHING."
Philippians 4:6
Sept. 11 was horrifying.
I remember the tower collapsing behind the reporter and watching all my children watching the TV in horror and thinking "Is this real??" My husband called to say he was coming home because they were evacuating all the downtown buildings
and the one he works in is a Government building
It was then I first began watching the news on a regular basis. I use to say as a child I never wanted to read a newspaper or watch the news because all you ever heard was evil bad things that would make you depressed
After 9-11 I have learned to watch the news
so we know what to pray about.
Though we wish we could change what happened 9-11 we can't and so now all we can do is make the best of each day we have left so lets WAKE UP! DRESS UP! SHUT UP! STAND UP! LOOK UP! REACH UP! & LIFT UP! EVERYDAY!

This Background Was Created by
The Lil Smiles Are Not apart of this set They are from Private collection
Today as my heart, like all of yours,
is found breaking from sorrow at the events of
today I found that I could not think straight,
could not focus, could not get my mind and heart
around the tragedy of the day and all of it's
ramifications for the rest of our earthly
days. My heart is breaking for those whose
lives are directly impacted by the tragedies and
for the world and what it means to us
ALL. I did not know what to do so
turned to the only place I knew to express my
feelings...here. If anyone would like to use
this page please do. I have not made
buttons, etc........it MUST be a simple set.
It MUST be a set of dignity, it MUST reflect that
the heart is broken. SO, I recommend that
one uses the rainbow code I have inserted into the
HTML for hyperlinked words. There is no logo
but please do place our MOON AND BACK on it and
link back so others may find the set if they wish
to use it to express their own emotions.
THANK you.
September 11, 2001 The day the world changed
forever
