We grieve deeply for those who have lost loved ones in what appears to be a senseless, vicious act of terrorism against our nation. We are confident that President Bush and our national leaders will act swiftly to protect our borders, and bring those responsible for this cowardly act to justice. But we must also remember that God is still very much in control. We look to the Word of God for answers:
Some boast of chariots, and some of horses;
but we boast of the name of the Lord our God.
They will collapse and fall;
but we shall rise and stand upright.
Give victory to the king, O Lord;
answer us when we call. Psalm 20: 7-9

This is a time for all Americans to pray for the thousands of victims, their families, and loved ones that have been affected by the tragic events of today. These atrocities remind us how precious life is and how important it is to be spiritually ready to stand before and give account to Almighty God.
My prayer is that the people of this nation will turn their eyes and hearts to the Lord and seek His wisdom and protection. May all Americans pray for our president and government leaders that God would guide and direct them as they lead our nation during these dark hours.
Franklin Graham is president of Samaritan's Purse and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association

O Heavenly Father, you alone are the Lord of all things. Before the mountains were formed, before the stars were in the sky, from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
We acknowledge, O Lord, that you are sovereign over all things and that nothing can happen apart from you. In our grief and in our confusion, we come to you because today we truly have nowhere else to turn. Your Word tells us that it is vain to trust in horses and chariots for safety. We your people trust in the name of the Lord our God.
Ray Pritchard is Senior Pastor of Calvary Memorial Church in Oak Park, Ill. and author of several books, including "An Anchor for the Soul" and "In the Shadow of the Cross."
