He Ain't the Leavin' Kind

This is a layout I did for a lyric challenge on Faithsisters.com. The lyrics are from a song called He ain't the Leavin' Kind by Rascal Flatts.
I am very proud of this LO. It's simple, but displays a powerful
message.
The more I thought of the message in the song, I knew that it was
perfect for these pictures of the "Ground Zero Cross" as it's called by many. The steel beams to many have come to symbolize hope amid the ruins of that horrible day. Once found, many celebrated Sunday services at the site. fallen firefighters and police officer's names are scribbled on it as well as " God Bless our fallen brothers".
The days that I have visited ground zero have always been with tears in my eyes. There is so much emotion in the air, it's hard not to feel it. We were there for the fifth anniversary of 9/11. The weekend was filled with celebrations of life and remembrance of ones lost. I found the New Yorkers are the most patriotic and kind of people. They may live fast and furious but, are glad to help those in need. back to the cross..
the more that I stared at it the more I wondered why these beams were not destroyed along with everything else around it?? Was it a sign from God?? I believe, Yes! So many faithful have asked why this happened to us? If God exists, why did he not stop it? I believe that those answers can be found with the cross. God was certainly there the day the towers fell. God was there to provide comfort and peace to those who perished. God was there with tears in his eyes watching the day unfold. Did he want this to happen? No, but he could not stop it. He could only watch as we watched as so many lost their lives. The cross is a reminder to us of God's presence during that day. He does not forsake us, He's with us always, He's not the Leavin' Kind.

Psalms 145:8-9

The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love.
The Lord is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made.


Song Lyrics:
"He Ain't The Leavin' Kind"

They tried their best to drag him out
Of a courthouse down in montgomery
Now they want to kick him out of school
And take him off our money
They can take those words off of paper and stone
But he aint gone, no

He ain't the leavin' kind
He'd never walk away
Even from those who dont believe
And wanna leave him behind
He ain't the leavin' kind

She stayed mad at him for a lot of years
For taking her husband
Started losing her faith and thinking that
Her life meant nothin
But when she looks at those kids
She raised all by herself
She knows she had some help
Yeah she knows

He ain't the leavin' kind
He'd never walk away
Even from those who don't believe
And wanna leave him behind
He ain't the leavin' kind

No matter what you do
No matter where you go he's
Always right there
With you

Even from those who don't believe
And wanna leave him behind
He ain't the leavin' kind
