"MEET ME IN THE STAIRWELL "
 
 
 You say you will never forget where you were when you  heard the news 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 O.K..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 inWashington DC, Texas, Kansas, and London.

 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 knew Me.
Some met Me for  the first time on the 86th floor.
 Some sought Me with their last breath

 
 Some wouldn'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.

 
You were not in the Tower, or the Pentagon, or the planes that day.
 
However, if you were there in  that explosive moment in time, would you have reached  for Me?

 
 September 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, to say an "Our Father"

 (Literally it only takes 1 minute.)

 

 

Our Father who are in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name,
Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be done,
On Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our  trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us 
 and lead us not into temptation but deliver us
 from  evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and
the glory, forever and ever Amen.
