I am not eloquent enough to write on the fifth anniversary of 9/11, luckily many others are such as Peggy Noonan who nails it. Luckily eloquence is not required in prayer and I will try to pray for and remember those that died that day. Those who have died since fighting terrorists and thugs who would only be too happy to do the same. To pray for those families who have lost someone on that day or subsequently. To pray for those currently in Afghanistan and Iraq and for the conversion of those who see this day as a celebration.
