The Lord's sheep entrusted to my care often look to me for care & relief in the midst of their sufferings. "Why Pastor? Why do I have to suffer this way? How can I find comfort?" It is a question we all ask in difficult & troubling times, including today as we remember the attack on America that occurred three years ago. 1Peter 1:3-9 is a favorite section of mine & has often brought comfort to the faithful.
Being refined by fire is not a pleasant experience. I don't know anyone who enjoys the burning, yet God tells us f our trials, "These have come so that your faith-of greater worth than gold...may be prved genuine & may result in praise, glory & honor when Jesus Christ is revealed."
Make no mistake! God is not the author of evil. Suffering is a result of sin, & sin is not of God. God wills His children to draw closer to Him, even in times of anguish, so that He may show them His boundless compassion & strengthen their faith as He comes to them in His word & Sacraments. The comforting result is an inexpressible & glorious joy as we are receiving the salvation of our souls.
Be with us in suffering & in anxiety, that by Your mercy we may bring praise & glory & honor to Your name for the gift of our Savior, Jesus. Amen

Good message of hope and faith on this day of rememberance.
You should list your sources, hd, so the author is known.
Patriot Day will be a day to remember in the history books, and we all have this memory to pass on to the next generation.
