A nation morns! by homeschoolmom

A nation morns!

Today, we visited the 9-11 Memorial in New York City. Reading the nearly 3,000 names around the reflecting pools was very sad. My Get Pushed Challenge this week is to photograph my favorite Bible verse. While I don't a specific "favorite" verse, today it is Matthew 5:4 - Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

Well captured, LIsa!

Poignant picture. How difficult to choose a favourite verse. I love all of them!

@lifepause @swilde @sarasdadandmom @terryliv @ceilidh @joansmor Thanks so much!
@digitalrn Yes, it was. We met a guy on the ferry to the Statue of Liberty who lived just across the river in NJ when it happened. I can't imagine seeing that devastation up close.

My daughter visited there in February this year, and she said it is such a sad place to be. Lovely poignant image.

@lynnilou Reading the names almost made me cry, especially after I encountered two women listed with "and their unborn child." So sad.
