Button Bustin Proud

"They honored us in many ways and when we were ready to sail, they furnished us with the supplies we needed." Acts 28:10

Forged in our minds and now in steel.

The USS New York is a floating memorial for the fallen at 9/11. As it sailed into the harbor of its namesake this cold gray morning, the $1 billion dollar vessel paused thoughtfully at Ground Zero for a 21 gun salute... Soldiers stood to attention on the mammoth bow constructed with over seven tons of steel from the World Trade Towers tragic wreckage as they dipped the flag in silence.

You would have to have ice running through your veins not to be stirred today.

So take us home Charlie....

"Well the eagle's been flying slow and the flag's been flying low
And a lot of people are saying that America's fixing to fall
But speaking just for me and some people from Tennessee
We got a thing or two to tell you all
This lady may have stumbled but she ain't never fell
And if the Russians don't believe that they can all go straight to hell
We're gonna put her feet back on the path of righteousness
And then God bless America again...." CD

Who's with me?

  1. Me, remembering the scripture to take heed when you think you can do it alone, lest you fall. If God be for us who can be against us?
