See caption for verse context ⬇⬇⬇

"8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

-1 Corinthians 13:8-13, NIV

Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last;
but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised.

-Proverbs 31:30 NLT

"I give speeches around the country. I tell how Stanley and I made our way out of the tower. Life is precious, I tell them. It can be gone in an instant."
– Brian Clark, 9/11 attacks survivor

Today we remember the great loss of life that occurred on September 11th, 2001. We honor the memories of the almost 3,000 people that died as a result of the terrorist attacks, and the remember the bravery of the first responders who gave many hope.
