An Awesome 9-11 Story

A man from Norfolk,
VA called a local radio station to share this on Sept 11 th, 2003.
His Name was Robert Matthews.
These are his words:
"A few weeks before Sept. 11th, my wife and I found out we were going to
have our first child.
She planned a trip out to California to visit her sister. On our way to
the airport, we prayed
that God would grant my wife a safe trip and be with her. Shortly after I
said 'amen,' we both
heard a loud pop and the car shook violently. We had blown out a
tire. I replaced the tire as quickly as I could, but we still missed her
flight. Both very upset, we drove home.
I received a call from my father who was retired NYFD. He asked what my
wife's flight number
was, but I explained that we missed the flight. My father informed me that her
flight was the one that crashed into the southern tower. I was too
shocked to speak. My father also had more
news for me; he was going to help. "This is not something I can just
sit by for; I have to do something."
I was concerned for my Father because he had never given his life to
Christ. After a brief debate,
I knew his mind was made up. Before he got off of the phone, he said,
"take good care of my grandchild."
Those were the last words I ever heard my father say; he died while helping in
the rescue effort.
My joy that my prayer of safety for my wife had been answered quickly became
anger. I was angry at God, at my father, and at myself. I had gone for
nearly two years blaming God for taking my father away. My son would never know
his grandfather, my father had never accepted Christ, and I never got to say
goodbye Then something happened. About two months ago, I was sitting at
home with my wife and my son, when there was a knock on the door I looked at my
wife, but I could tell she wasn't expecting anyone. I opened the door to a
couple with a small child. The man looked at me and asked if my father's
name was Jake Matthews. I told him it was. He quickly grabbed my hand and said,
'I never got the chance to meet your father, but it is an honor to meet his
son.' He explained to me that his wife had worked in the World Trade
Center and had been caught inside after the attack. She was pregnant and had
been caught under debris. He then explained that my father had been the one to
find his wife and free her.
My eyes welled up with tears as I thought of my father giving his life for
people like this. He then said, 'there is something else you need to
know.' His wife then told me that as my father worked to free her, she
talked to him and lead him to Christ. I began sobbing at the news. Now I
know that when I get to heaven, my father will be standing beside Jesus to
welcome me, and that this family would be able to thank him themselves.
When their baby boy was born, they named him Jacob Matthew in honor of the man
who gave his life so mother and baby could live."
This story should help us to realize two things:
First - that though it has been three years since the attacks, we should
never let it become a mere tragic memory.
And second - but most important - God is always in control. We may not
see the reason behind things, and we may never know this side of heaven, but
God is ALWAYS in control.
Please take time to share this amazing story with those you love. You may
never know the impact it may have on someone.
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
