I reread this every year.
I cry like a baby every year.
Todd Beamer died a father, husband, and hero.
Todd: Hello… Operator… listen to me. I can’t speak very loud. This is an emergency. I’m a passenger on a United flight to San Francisco. Our plane has been hijacked.
Lisa: I understand. Can they see you?
Todd: No. There are three that we know of. They have knives — razor knives, like box cutters. Someone announced from the cockpit there was a bomb. It sounded fake.
Lisa: Your name?Todd: Todd Beamer. United Flight 93.Todd: They killed one passenger in first class. They forced most of us back. Fourteen of us here. Five flight attendants. The guy with the bomb ordered us to sit on the floor.
Lisa: Are you okay?
Todd: We’re going down… wait. No. We’re leveling off. We changed directions. We’re flying east again.
Todd: A guy named Jeremy called his wife. She told him two planes hit the World Trade Center. Lisa, is that true?
Lisa: I have to tell you the truth. It’s very bad. Both towers are gone. A third plane hit the Pentagon. Our country is under attack. I’m afraid your plane may be part of their plan.
Todd: Oh God. Lisa, will you do something for me? Call my wife and my kids. Promise me you’ll call.
Lisa: I promise.
Todd: Our home number is… You have the same name as my wife. Lisa. We’ve been married ten years. She’s pregnant with our third child. Tell her I love her. I’ll always love her. We have two boys — David, he’s 3, and Andrew, he’s 1. Tell them their daddy loves them and he is so proud of them. The baby is due January 12th. I saw an ultrasound. We still don’t know if it’s a girl or a boy.
Lisa: I’ll tell them. I promise, Todd.(Lisa patches in the FBI.)
Agent: Todd, your plane is on a course for Washington. Best guess is the White House or the Capitol.
Todd: I understand. I’ll be back.
Todd: Everyone knows this isn’t a normal hijacking. We have decided we will not be pawns in their plot.
Lisa: What are you going to do?
Todd: Four of us are going to rush the one with the bomb. Then the cockpit. A stewardess is getting boiling water. We’ll take them out.
Todd: Would you pray with me?They pray the Lord’s Prayer. Then: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.
Todd: God help me. Jesus help me.Are you guys ready? Let’s Roll.
Maybe this won't make sense to anyone else...
But I feel like it's been so long since we have seen justice truly enacted on behalf of a White victim against a Black perpetrator, that many of us didn't even know if it was possible.
Thank God it is possible.
RIP Austin 💔
I just spent 20 minutes having a discussion with a liberal.
Topic: The accusation that Charlie Kirk’s memorial service was a violation of the separation of church and state.
I’ll tell you what struck me so clearly: the left fears the presence of God and open Christianity.
If you’re wondering if God exists -
Ask yourself how else a grieving widow can see her beloved husband murdered in front of the entire world
And 11 days later
Have the strength to forgive the young man who pulled the trigger.
God exists.
Unfortunately no matter how many of us stand up and call you out, we can’t bring Charlie back. But the left doesn’t understand the difference between the death of an innocent man and the removal of a so called “comedian” from the air. That shows that we are not the same.
The ONLY reason @Disney is bringing @jimmykimmel back is because the American people stood up, called out the executives by name, Disney's stock plummeted and Disney lost a lot of money.
Get it?
That's the playbook for the next three years of Trump.
YOU must be LOUDER than him.
My dear American friends,
We British Christians would get excited when, once a year, Queen Elizabeth would make a mild but sincere reference to the love of Jesus Christ in her Christmas address.
In Charlie Kirks' Memorial service, watched by tens of millions, I just heard:
- Multiple clear presentations of the gospel from men like @robmccoyus and @DrFrankTurek with clear calls to repentance and faith
- Worship songs full of Scripture sung by tens of thousands live and millions at home
- Personal testimonies of lives transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers
- Demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, child-rearing and family
- Calls to Romans 13 for the government to bear the sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked
- Declarations of spiritual warfare on the forces of evil and promises to endure no matter the cost
- Calls to be prophets and call the nation to repent
- More Scripture references and Bible readings than I can count
- And a widow publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers on the cross.
All of it done before, and by, the most powerful people in your nation and the world.
You guys should be on your knees thanking God for your country. It is a light to the world.
Never stop fighting for it.
A repeat felon died by fetanoyl overdose, and the left burned every major city in America to the ground.
A Christian conservative activist was martyred in cold blood in front of the entire nation, and it sparked a revival for hundreds of thousands to worship Christ even louder.
Erika Kirk just forgave her husband’s murderer, 11 days later, on the world stage.
Jesus has never been lifted so high in America in our lifetime.
I’m undone.
🚨BREAKINGHEARTS: In a tear-jerking moment, tens of thousands of PATRIOTS hold up signs that read "THIS IS OUR TURNING POINT" and "HERE I AM LORD, SEND ME" at the Charlie Kirk memorial.
For Charlie! 🙏🏼
When George Floyd died, BLM organized riots nationwide that killed 25-40 people, injured 900 cops & caused $2 billion in damages
When Charlie Kirk was assassinated, people organized prayer vigils & millions of dollars were raised for his wife & 2 children
We are not the same
The worst mistake the Left has ever made was assassinating Charlie Kirk.
We are witnessing the greatest revival of Western values in American history and it is burning with the fury of 1,000 suns.
Evil will regret that day for all eternity.
There are liberals protesting Charlie Kirk’s funeral.
Read that again.
They’re protesting a FUNERAL.
How in the world do you protest a funeral and still think you’re on the right side of things?
