If we are old enough, we remember where we were seventeen years ago today:  when more than 3,000 people were brutally killed at the trade towers and in Pennsylvania. It's always good to remember!

Today's entry from Sarah Young in "Jesus Calling:  Enjoying Peace in His Presence":

"Rejoice in Me always! No matter what is going on, you can rejoice in your Love-relationship with Me. This is the secret of being content in all circumstances. So many people dream of the day when they will finally be happy:  when they are out of debt, when their children are out of trouble, when they have more leisure time, and so on. While they daydream, their moments are trickling into the ground like precious balm spilling wastefully from overturned bottles.

"Fantasizing about future happiness will never bring fulfillment, because fantasy is unreality. Even though I am invisible, I am far more Real than the world you see around you. My reality is eternal and unchanging. Bring your moments to Me, and I will fill them with vibrant Joy. Now is the time to rejoice in My Presence."

~ Taken from Philippians 4:4; Psalm 102:27
