......this is a true story........

The chair was empty, the room
was cold.
By his bedside it stayed.
The bedridden man laying in
bed, saved it.
Maybe, just maybe a visitor
would sit in it someday.

The days went by, the chair
remained empty.
The old man would say,"If I
only knew how to pray."
He had abandoned any attempt
at prayer.

He needed a friend, to spend
these last days with him.
He felt abandoned and barren.
No one cared about him.

Then he heard a whisper.
Someone who spoke softly
said,"I'll Be With You Always."
He looked at the chair, thinking
that it moved.

He faintly saw a figure sitting in
it.
He asked,"is that you Jesus?"
Then he began to talk to Jesus
like a friend.
Two hours a day he would talk
to the chair.

He said, "my friend Jesus, I know
that you care."
Your right by my side, sitting in
the chair.
He continued to share his thoughts
and his worries.
As his friend sat there, never in a
hurry.

His daughter was leaving to go
to the store.
Before she left, her father said,
I love you, and kissed her on the
cheek.

He then leaned over resting his
head upon the chair beside his bed.
As he went to sleep he could feel
his best friends arms wrapping
around him, and with a smile
he said,"thank you Jesus, my friend
the Beginning and the End.
