Taken from an
American Legion Auxiliary email several days ago:
Remembering
the victims of 9/11
"Today marks
the 19th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Take time on Patriot Day
and this National Day of Service and Remembrance to remember those lost and
honor those who defend our freedom."

Yesterday I grabbed
our dog's retractable leash for a quick walk. First, I had to take a couple
of things out to my van in the machine shed.
When I got back to the sidewalk, I saw Rocky looking at me, near the shed, as
if to say, "What are we doing here?"
I called, "Come on, Rocky!" And he came running, with reckless
abandon, ready for whatever I had in store for us.
Sometimes I wonder, what do I do when Jesus says, "Come on, Karen!"
Do I run toward Him with joy in my heart and a spring in my step?
The Bible says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I
will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)
And sometimes maybe Jesus just wants to take a walk together with me!
