JYB remembers Lisa J. Raines
As part of the 2996 project last year I posted an all-too-brief memorial to Lisa J. Raines who was murdered on American Flight 77 . I encourage you to revisit it and remember one of far too many lives our enemies have stolen.
Some not particularly interesting personal recollections are here.
There isn't much left to say. A great evil still hangs over the world. Our will to resist it is faltering. Our country is divided and bickering. The Marines are at war and the rest of us are at the mall.
I don't roar and scream and rant on the blog or in real life, so I'll just shut up and say my prayers and go to bed.
In Time of War and Tumults.ALMIGHTY God, the supreme Governor of all things, whose power no creature is able to resist, to whom it belongeth justly to punish sinners, and to be merciful to those who truly repent; Save and deliver us, we humbly beseech thee, from the hands of our enemies; that we, being armed with thy defence, may be preserved evermore from all perils, to glorify thee, who art the only giver of all victory; through the merits of thy Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
