Our Faith after September 11

What do we pray for at this time when personally and nationally our souls feel an emptiness after the tragedy of September 11? I've thought of the importance of praying for a change of heart for the people who want to do us harm. God is more powerful than the bombs. God is more powerful than the fear.

I believe that God can turn the hearts of those who want to do us harm. He can touch our hearts also with a new awareness of the sufferings and injustice that is going around in the world.

I believe that prayer for the terrorists is an important ingredient of the war we are in.
