Meet me in the stairwell

'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 dialed. 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
During the next 60 seconds, stop whatever you are
Doing, and take this opportunity. (Literally it
Is only 1 minute.) All you have to do is the
Following:

Stop and think and appreciate God's power
In your life, for doing what you know is pleasing to
Him. If you are not ashamed to do this, follow the
Instructions. Jesus said, 'If you are ashamed of Me, I will be
Ashamed of you before My Father'

If you are not ashamed, copy and send this message...only
If you believe 'Yes, I love my God. He is my
Fountain of Life and My Savior. He Keeps me going day and
Night. Without Him, I am no one. But with Him, I can do
Everything. Christ is my strength.

Very good writing rizen1, you certainly impress me with your sense of

awareness on how this event may be compared to the end. For those who

know the power of God, know that he will never allow our journey to end.

Many people lost thier lives on september 11th but i'm sure many gained

thier long waited ticket to catch the train to see jesus. We must

appreciate the love that God has for us and know that if we remain

faithful to him, we will be rewarded. I say reward as a gift and not an

incentive because being with God is not for our own gain but for all those

who believe. Just because we have God doesn't mean we all will be the

next to get into the pearly gates but our faith through action will show

who we are as a person.


Great post, keep up the good work sister rizen1
