Love
Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs. Psalm 10:12
If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Matthew 5:41
We love because He first loved us. 1 John 4:19
Peace
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. Psalm 34:14
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6,7
Hope
Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. Psalm 42:11

This post is in memory of Zandra Cooper Ploger. Seven years ago today, Zandra perished aboard American Airlines Flight 77. I pray the Lord brings love, peace and hope to her family today.

I don’t have a post, but I will never forget hearing all the messages from people’s answering machines they shared afterwards.
The one that really touched my heart and I will never forget is… the story of Melissa Harrington. Her husband shared her last message to him during all the choas. I can’t remember the whole message, but she did tell him, “…I’m not sure if I’m going to get out of here, but just know that I love you..” She was calm but was crying of course.
I will just never forget sitting there in my living room sobbing uncontrolably for her husband.
Hugs to you Monica!!
Excellent Bible quotes for today.
