24 years ago 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives. None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001. All of them ushered out into eternity.
This reminds me that we must always remember tomorrow is not promised.
There is no more important thing than knowing we are ready to meet our creator should tonight be our last.
The Bible says - Prepare to meet God
And, 'boast not about tomorrow for you do not know what a day will bring forth'
Thankfully it also says:
For God so loved the world He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have ever lasting life, John 3 v16
