Silent Night

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 for 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 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 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?

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.

Remember...I love

This is incredible. I haven't cried since my husband died suddenly nine years ago. I had to be strong. I didn't cry at the time of 9/11, because I had to be strong. I cried today when I heard this beautiful piece.

It cleansed my spirit. It reinforced my belief in God. And it gave me permission to wash away the grief, because it reminded me again in such a poignant way that God is THERE for all of us. Thank you.

I know EXACTLY what you mean.
And, just in time for Christmas.

SPECIAL THANKS to nationally syndicated talk show host Mike Gallagher:

Mike Gallagher's road to becoming one of America's fastest-growing nationally syndicated radio talk show hosts began in 1978 as a 17-year-old high school senior in Dayton, Ohio. Taking a tour of his hometown talk radio station, WAVI, Mike saw a memo on the bulletin board stating that the station was in search of a young talk host. Figuring he had to be one of the leading contenders based on his age, he marched into the program director's office and announced that he was the man for the job. That night, he was on the air and within a week he had his first full-time stint in broadcasting. When the management of WAVI discovered they had hired a high school senior, they quickly put a clause in his contract mandating that he never publicly reveal his age. So began a colorful broadcasting career that has culminated in being heard around the country. In it's first few months of launching the national program, The Mike Gallagher Show is heard on over 200 radio stations in communities all over the country, framed by markets like Seattle, Sacramento, Jacksonville, Los Angeles, and New York City.

Mike can seem a bit "goofy" at times, but he has a heart of gold, and his aggressive promoting of THIS SONG has forever earned him a GREAT DEAL of respect from listeners like me.

I think I got something in my eye...

I know what you mean. Thank you for bumping this thread - about a WONDERFUL song.

[Tennessee_Bob]

Thanks for the heads up!

Now I'll have to listen to it later. It's hard to explain to my daughter why I cry about this.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

That's what touch-typing is for. :-)

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Bump!

[GailA]

Our local host at 3 pm in Memphis has been playing this at various times during his program for the past several days. MOVING

[Alamo-Girl]

Amen! and bump!

Do you know if there is a Washington Dee Sleaze area station playing this song?

I haven't cried since my husband died suddenly nine years ago. I had to be strong.
I didn't cry at the time of 9/11, because I had to be strong. I cried today when I
heard this beautiful piece.

Glad you finally let the sluice-gates open.
You must be a tough cookie...I suspect there's hardly been a week since 9-11 happened
that I haven't gotten a bit chocked up over something to do with the WTC, the Pentagon,
Flight 93, death of Mike Spann, etc.

Your body (especially your endocrine system) probably thanks you for finally letting go!
