My Devotional Journal: Our Daily Bread from Nancy Gavilanes…  USE THIS LINK    the author for today’s 9-11 ODB entry, being a native New Yorker, writes of visiting the “9-11” memorial (see attached photo) and being surprised by the comfort and joy she experienced at the pictured “ground-zero” cascading pool. 

Today is a day of somber remembrance of the horrors of all those who died in those twin-towers on 9/11/01.   But I am also covered with the joy of knowing that my Lord (and prayerfully yours too), is willing - and able - to provide His comforting grace to any/all who believe in Him as Lord.  And remembering “9-11,” that is so comforting.  Do you feel it?   Stopping to pray that you do.   

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You … for giving me Your constant comfort.  

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, … for doling out Your comfort in big doses as we face the storms and trials of life. … Amen
