Written Friday 7/28/06 at home in Monroe, GA about 11pm during a period of unemployment.
In all my wanderings, in all my sins, in all my piousness, in all my pride, in all my weakness and humility, in all my joys, in all my sorrows, disappointments, fears, doubt and unbelief……….YOU WERE THERE.
I expected a parade and a speech, loud music and excitement; but somewhere in all my disillusionment you quietly slipped in the backdoor of my life. Unnoticed, you sat on the last pew.
You waited and waited and waited some more. Until I had spent my last effort, last dollar, last fear, last word, last breath. Without much ado, you knelt beside my lifeless body; enveloping me in a grasp that brought security and hope, and restored my faith and strength.
Ironically in all my efforts to find you, you found me. And so where I thought the journey ended, I found that I had just begun….MY PURSUIT OF GOD.

Have I told you lately that you're awesome! I'm blessed to be married to you!
You just did! I feel the same way about you, too, baby.
Wow, so powerful. Brought tears, some of us know what its like to feel the power of God right there to pick us up when we are so weak.
