My heart still hurts for the September 11 victims. We must be ready for we don't know tomorrow. Tomorrow may be one day too late. Richard 
THE DAY BEFORE Monday September 10 Was the day before. We all thought for tomorrow A normal day was in store. In the blink of a human eye Bodies were greeted with fire. Too late to cry "Lord! Lord!" After their earthly bodies expire.
In that same blink of the eye, To loved ones many said goodbye. For their eternal souls I pray, With a tear in each eye. Were they right with God Or were they waiting one more day? Depending on their spiritual condition Heaven or hell, their soul will stay.
They were innocent victims But were they ready for God to see? If our door to tomorrow is unlocked It is God who must turn the key. We cannot wait 'til tomorrow For God to accept. Satan is always lurking around For our souls to intercept.
I pray that from this tragedy Getting right with God we learn. If we don't, forever in hell Our souls will burn. The rescue workers Are The heroes of the day. For them not enough good words Am I able to write or say.
They proved the depth Of their love; Dying for their neighbor As commanded by God above. The day before we meet our maker Is when we all must decide. Tomorrow may be too late to choose Where our soul will forever reside. Richard E. Funnell
