Thanks, Lin! I just write what God lays on my heart. Sometimes I have Paul proofread it first and he often tells me my words don’t make sense. So I rewrite and rewrite and rewrite until they do! Love you!
]]>Thanks so much, Kathy – especially for the prayers. I’ll be honest, I have plenty of “low” and angry moments. I am growing weary of being alone and sometimes fantasize of flying to China myself and blowing up their “live animal” markets!!! As soon as this is past us, we need to get together so I can hear about your plans to move overseas and then make plans for when we can visit you!!! Love you!
]]>Thanks, Kurt! May you, too, make the most of this (strange) holy week and celebrate Easter with a new and special appreciation for LIVE human interaction!!! Love you!
]]>Oh Janis! I love you AND Ben Rector! That song totally brings me back to the elementary school days at Forest Grove. We Visser girls sure had a wonderful, blessed group of friends and you were truly one of the most special – especially to Heidi. I recently saw Jeremy Veltema and just started weeping because of those same beautiful memories!!! Thanks for your prayers, Janis! I truly do appreciate every one. Stay safe and healthy and very soon we can toss those stupid elbow bumps out the door and hug each other tightly the way human beings were MEANT to greet one another!!! Love you!!!
]]>Oh Betsy! Thank you so much for sharing these poignant and precious memories from the legacy of John. What a beautiful example of how to die well – and thus, how to live well. Those stories truly inspire me!!! I want every day to matter and really, the true measure of that is how did I glorify God and tell others about Him? John certainly did that well! And there are no better words to leave this earth with than, “Jesus is coming, watch!” Oh my! I LOVE that!!! Thank you, Betsy. xoxo
]]>And YOU have always been such and encouragement to ME!!! Love you and miss you, too! xoxo
