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 really wasn't coming home that night.
I was in the stairwell of the 23rd floor when a woman cried out to Me
for help, for the very first time in her life. "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, Kansas, London... I was everywhere. 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 very last breath. Some couldn't hear Me calling to
them through the smoke and flames; "Come to Me... this way . take my
hand." Some had never heard my voice before. And a few 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?
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.
Love,
God
