  Very honored for the invite! I know about old houses, I was raised in a house that my Great-Grandfather had built in 1903. My father was doing some duct work and found old empty whiskey bottles at the end of every floor joist. We gathered up a bushel basket full. My grandfather commented, "Well, we did have a hired hand who liked to drink a bit..."

  JUST CHECKING IN
  Minister passing through his church,
  in the middle of the day.
  Decided to pause by the altar
  and see who had come to pray.

  Just then the back door opened,
  a man came down the aisle.
  The minister frowned as he saw,
  the man hadn't shaved in a while.

  His shirt was kind a shabby
  and his coat was worn and frayed.
  The man knelt, he bowed his head,
  then rose and walked away.

  In the days that followed,
  each noon time came this chap.
  Each time he knelt just for a moment,
  a lunch pail in his lap.

  Well, the minister's suspicions grew,
  with robbery a main fear.
  He decided to stop the man and ask him,
  'What are you doing here?'

  The old man said, he worked down the road,
  lunch was half an hour.
  Lunchtime was his prayer time,
  for finding strength and power.

  'I stay only moments, see,
  cause the factory's so far away.
  As I kneel here talking to the Lord,
  this is kinda what I say.'

  'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, LORD,
  HOW HAPPY I'VE BEEN.
  SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP
  AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN.
  DON'T KNOW MUCH OF HOW TO PRAY,
  BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.
  SO, JESUS THIS IS JIM,
  CHECKING IN TODAY.'

  The minister, feeling foolish,
  told Jim, that was fine.
  He told the man that he was welcome
  to come and pray just anytime.

  'Time to go', Jim smiled, said 'Thanks.'
  He hurried to the door.
  The minister knelt at the altar,
  he'd never done it before.

  His cold heart melted, warmed with love,
  and met with Jesus there.
  And as the tears flowed, in his heart,
  he repeated old Jim's prayer:

  ''I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, LORD,
  HOW HAPPY I'VE BEEN, SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN. I DON'T KNOW MUCH OF HOW TO PRAY,
  BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.

  SO, JESUS, THIS IS ME CHECKING IN TODAY.'

  Past noon one day, the minister noticed
  that old Jim hadn't come.
  As more days passed without Jim,
  he began to worry some.

  At the factory, he asked about him,
  learning he was ill.
  The hospital staff was worried,
  But he'd given them a thrill.

  The week that Jim was with them,
  Brought changes in the ward.
  His smiles, a joy contagious.
  Changed people, were his reward.

  The head nurse couldn't understand
  why Jim was so glad,
  when no flowers, calls or cards came,
  Not a visitor he had.

  The minister stayed by his bed,
  He voiced the nurse's concern.
  No friends came to show they cared.
  He had nowhere to turn.

  Looking surprised, old Jim spoke up
  and with a winsome smile said,
  'the nurse is wrong, she couldn't know,
  that he's in here all the while....'

  'Everyday at noon He's here,
  a dear friend of mine you see.
  He sits right down, takes my hand,
  leans over and says to me:'

  'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, JIM,
  HOW HAPPY I HAVE BEEN,
  SINCE WE FOUND THIS FRIENDSHIP,
  AND I TOOK AWAY YOUR SIN.

  ALWAYS LOVE TO HEAR YOU PRAY,
  I THINK ABOUT YOU EACH DAY
  AND SO JIM, THIS IS JESUS,
  CHECKING IN TODAY.'
  

  If this blesses you, pass it on.
  Many people will walk in and out of your life,
  but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart

  May God hold you in the palm of His hand
  and Angels watch over you..

  I pray you are moved
  to pass this page on to

  your friends & loved ones.

  Jesus said:
  ' If you are ashamed of me,' I will be ashamed
  of you before my Father.'

  If you are not ashamed, pass this on.
  But only if you mean it.

  So this is me ............ Just Checking In Your friend and supporter SweetLucy (I've been busy with midterms and now finals...ohhh the stress of it all!) :)

  I am privileged to have you as a friend. I hope the life ahead of you brings nothing but happiness. Thanks for accepting..........again, I am so very sorry for what you have gone through. And as a side note, State Farm should be investigated, they are probably the worst nationwide insurance company still in business.....God Bless you and all your family!
