MEET ME IN THE STAIRWELL
You say you will never forget where you were when
you heard the news On September 11, 2001.
Neither will I.
[]
I was on the 110th floor in a smoke filled room
with a man who called his wife to say 'Good-Bye.' I
held his fingers steady as he dialled. I gave him the
peace to say, 'Honey, I am not going to make it, but it
is OK..I am ready to go.'
[]
I was with his wife when he called as she fed
breakfast to their children. I held her up as she
tried to understand his words and as she realized
he wasn't coming home that night.
[]
I was in the stairwell of the 23rd floor when a
woman cried out to Me for help. 'I have been
knocking on the door of your heart for 50 years!' I said.
'Of course I will show you the way home - only
believe in Me now.'
[]
I was at the base of the building with the Priest
ministering to the injured and devastated souls.
I took him home to tend to his Flock in Heaven. He
heard my voice and answered.
[]
I was on all four of those planes, in every seat,
with every prayer. I was with the crew as they
were overtaken I was in the very hearts of the
believers there, comforting and assuring them that their
faith has saved them.
[]
I was in Texas, Virginia, California, Michigan, Afghanistan.
I was standing next to you when you heard the terrible news
Did you sense Me?
[]
I want you to know that I saw every face. I knew
every name - though not all know Me. Some met Me
for the first time on the 86th floor.
[]
Some sought Me with their last breath.
Some couldn't hear Me calling to them through the
smoke and flames; 'Come to Me.. this way... take
my hand.' Some chose, for the final time, to ignore Me.
But, I was there
[]
I did not place you in the Tower that day. You
may not know why, but I do. However, if you were
there in that explosive moment in time, would you have
reached for Me?
[]
Sept. 11, 2001, was not the end of the journey
for you. But someday your journey will end. And I
will be there for you as well. Seek Me now while I may
be found. Then, at any moment, you know you are
'ready to go.'
[]
I will be in the stairwell of your final moments.
God
