TERRORISM - MISSED OUT ON SEPT. 11, 2001
By Dr. Hoyt W.
Allen, Jr.
The following
article came to me
recently and I
contended that I
should pass it on.
It has been slightly
edited and a
conclusion added.
1) As you might
know, the head of a
company survived
9/11 because his
son started
kindergarten.
2) Another fellow
was alive because it
was his turn to
bring donuts.
3) One woman was
late because her
alarm clock didn't
go off in time.
4) One was late
because of being
stuck on the NJ
Turnpike because of
an auto accident.
5) One of them
missed his bus.
6) One spilled food
on her clothes and
had to take time to
change.
7) One's car
wouldn't start.
8) One went back to
answer the
telephone.
9) One’s child
dragged and didn't
get ready as soon as
he should have.
10) One couldn't get
a taxi.
11) The one that
struck me was the
man who put on a new
pair of shoes
that morning, took
the various means to
get to work but
before he got
there, he
developed
a blister on his
foot. He stopped at
a drugstore to
buy a Band-Aid.
That
is why he is alive
today.
12) Now when I am
stuck in traffic,
miss an elevator,
turn back to answer
a ringing telephone
and all the little
things that annoy
me. I think to
myself, this is
exactly where I was
meant to be at this
very moment. So
think of this the
next time your
morning seems to be
going wrong, the
children are slow
getting dressed, you
can't seem to find
the car keys, you
hit every traffic
light, don't get mad
or frustrated. May
God continue to
bless you with all
those annoying
little things and
may you remember
their possible
purpose.
Plainly, don’t get
short changed. Let’s
be ready to meet our
Maker. The Bible (in
Acts) teaches that
to avoid hell and
gain heaven - one
must:
1) Believe In Jesus
As Savior (16:31) 2)
Repent Of Sins
(17:30)
3) Confess Christ
Audibly (8:37) 4) Be
Baptized In Water
(2:38)
5) Live A Christian
Life (14:22) 6) Be
Active In the Church
(2:47)
