Today was a day that a great searching began. September 11, 2001. The searching was frantic and desperate at first. If there were any survivors, surely their injuries would be grave and they wouldn't be able to survive long. But there was more than one searching that started that day, September 11, 2001. The other was the searching for the man and the people responsible for this act. And for Jesus, too, the Good Shepherd searching for His sheep, there was a price to be paid. And Jesus paid it. He took responsibility for all the sin, all the rubble, all the death, all the chaos, all the grief caused by our sin.
