			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is good for us all to remember what happened 8 years ago on <strong>September 11th.</strong> Our nation was shaken to the core. It is one of those events that everyone who was old enough to remember can tell you where they were and what they were doing.</p>
<p>On the anniversary of that date, we often are told we should remember &#8211; and I agree. But, we should take it a step further &#8211; we should <strong>learn</strong> as well.</p>
<p>I believe in a strong military, but more than that I believe in an omnipotent God!! He is where our strength as a nation comes from.</p>
<p>So, let&#8217;s remember what happened on 9/11 &amp; <strong>learn that our true security is in Christ&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Psalm 33:16-22</span></strong></p>
