Where was God on 911?

He was right there, that's where. 

He already knew it would happen, who would do it, when it would happen, where it would happen, why it would happen, He knew it all.  He was right there letting it happen.  How could He not be?

I believe in a few strong fundamental thought as to why 911 happened and why God was right there on the scene and let it happen. 

THOUGHTS:

God, in His unlimited perfection, gave us all the free will to choose.  I believe in His perfect intelligence and wisdom He knew that in order for us to be as happy and as free as we could be we had to have free will.  Could you imagine not having free will?  It would be awful.  What if you wanted to take a walk today and enjoy God's beautiful creations, the sun, the moon the stars that we love, but didn't have the free will to do it?  Or what if all your daily decisions had to be approved by God? I just don't think that you would be as happy as you are with ultimate free will.  He created us with free will and as you will read further He did it because I believe He had too.

God is perfect and in his perfect way he created us imperfect and with free will.  Unfortunately along with free will we have the freedom to choose good or evil.  These people that carried out 911 were exercising their God given free will to choose.  God watched every vile step they took to orchestrate it.  In their ghastly end they will be judged by the supreme perfect judge and I would not want to be in their shoes. 

I am not perfect and don't understand everything there is about God but logically thinking it is ultimately and perfectly wise to see why God gave us all free will.  How else can we perfectly show our allegiance to Him?  I mean with free will to choose and God's ability to know everything, when we decide to choose Him then He knows in our heart without a doubt where we stand.  It is the perfect way in which to know.  If we didn't have free will, then yes, he might force us to accept Him, but would that really be a good way to do it?  That just doesn't make as much sense as it does for Him to give us free will and to make us make the ultimate, perfect decision to choose Him.  With free will to choose, we are happier and He is sure.  Think about it.  I believe God had to give us free will and with free will, evil things like 911 will continue to happen.
