Last night while laying in bed watching tv James checks facebook on his phone and status after status claims that Osama Bin Laden is dead. So we immediately turn CNN on...and it is official.
So many thoughts....however with this day and time facebook status' through out a few things I wanted to get out there that I really thought were interesting.
Lots of people were over joyed in a revengeful way and some in a form of hope...I'd like to stick to the hope side, but I thought these two verses that were shared where really worth sharing:
Proverbs 24:17 Do not rejoice when your enemies fall, and do not let your heart be glad when they stumbled.
Romans 12:19 Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written; "It is mine to avenge, I will repay," says The Lord.
I have always believed that God's vengence is much worse than any human's...lets leave it to him.
In addition, I can only hope that the massed of people that were dreadfully effected by 9/11 can have an extra since of hope and freedom from their pain and suffering and looked to that as oppose to a feeling of justice.
This will definitely mark a huge accomplishment in the USA and I am very proud of our military men and women!!!!
May 1st, 1945 = Hitler confirmed dead
May 1st, 2011 = Bin Laden confirmed dead
I have always been facinated with numbers and repeats in history and similarities and trends. This to me is very amazing.
