Dearest Laura,
I only got to know you over a semester and feel in love with the person God has
made you to be. You are one of the people I think about who have come into my
life for such a short time, but will always leave an impression on me. Your
brokenness will strengthen you. Your pain will shape and grow you. And
remember the good work that God has begun in you, He will see to its completion.

CUtie- thank you so much for this email: I feel of all people that I have known in my short existence here, you are the one who knows the true person God made me to be- you saw me as who I am- the real me: in love with God and untainted by my past mistakes...THANK YOU for bringing me back there by encouraging me with His truth... He is good!!!
Funny story Sweetie: He was everywhere yesterday.. hehehe: I was going outside before church to dig myself out and all doors of the house were locked....I walked out the back door with my shovel and started to close the door but my shoelace got stuck in the frame and prevented me from getting locked out... so I went to church (on time) and it was like the pastor was speaking for me to hear: 'Putting Calamine lotion on Melanoma'. (He referenced Psalm 51... beautiful)... "Stop distracting yourself from pain and face it--> we need to change from the inside and then it will show on the outside; Our prayer: I am a son to you, but I feel so dead to you and cold at heart: unless you ARRIVE AND CHANGE MY HEART." Excellent sermon! I love the 'arrive' part especially when we get too weak and deep into our own mind that we can't see out. I love the action word on His part because it's like He cares so much that He will reach OUT and come to US because He is so enthralled with us. Neat.
Thank you again, Sweetie for you note: I really appreciate you and so thankful that I have you in my life-- I am truly blessed!!
Love you tons and bunches,
Laura :)
