AND I miss her! And Alayne, you are adorable!

And Brad, hon, update your picture! Although, you were really a cutie when ya was a little guy!

Steve, dang, I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!! =)

Precious, you can call me anytime you want. I've got a phone card that saves me $, plus, on my CELL phone I have free minutes after 8pm, and unlimited minutes on the weekends...of course then you have to worry about the reception coming in and out, depending on where I am when you call me, BUT...lol....oh well, it makes for an interesting conversation! lol Kind of like that "gossip" game we used to play in children's church as a kid..hhaha..know what I'm talking about?

Alayne is both beautiful AND talented...well, AND a genius(which goes for Daniel as well!)....and...

OK, well, the MOST awesome thing about her is her spiritual and emotional DEPTH. That's something so hard to access in most people today, but she just wears her heart on her sleeve, and it's great. It's like the difference between freshly brewed and instant coffee!!!!! She's like FRESHLY BREWED COFFEE!!!! MmmmmmMMMMMM! :D

Oh, and her poems ROCK MY HEART OFF! ALAYNE, you should get them published! Or at least send some to me, so I can read them when I'm overflowing with emotions and questions. You have a gift!

"All Of The Words"

How do I speak of the indescribable to You
I will try to explain these feelings that are true
So looking to the sky I will sing and from my heart to You I bring

All of the words in all of my life that could never explain and never describe
All of my love, which is nothing to hide so I lift up my hands and I worship
I worship You

In your presence I forever choose to live
I will praise You for it's all I have to give
So looking to the sky I will sing and from my heart to You I bring

All of the words in all of my life that could never explain and never describe
All of my love, which is nothing to hide so I lift up my hands and I worship

By Your grace You let me come talk to You
It's not that I'm worthy I thank you Jesus
For the love that You have shown

All of the words in all of my life that could never explain and never describe
All of my love, which is nothing to hide so I lift up my hands and I worship

With all of the words in all of my life that could never explain and never describe
All of my love, which is nothing to hide so I lift up my hands and I worship
I worship You

Thanks for the sweet compliments Keema. You really made me smile. I'm glad that we are friends and that you came to visit.

Keema is a really awesome person, y'all. She exhudes the love of God, and always seems to have Him and His will first and foremost in mind in whatever she does and says. We had a very bad thing happen while she was here, and her attitude was so uplifting that we were able to put that bad thing aside and have a good time anyway.

God bless you Keema!!!

Forever,
Alayne

you know, I could have had a better attitude than I did...I didn't mean to say this like I did...I hope they know that I do like them! :P

On the way home, God really started correcting some underlying attitudes I had had and I didn't even realize they were there! Nothing to do with YOU guys, of course...more just having to do with my relationship with Him....or lack thereof. There are so many times that I hold back what I want to give to God, because I'm afraid of what might happen if I let go. But you know, it's easier to let go than hold on to anything else that's not Jesus. Easier for your spirit. Sometimes He just gets a hold of me and goes, "WHOA! Wait! You're getting ahead of Me. You're putting yourself before someone else, and that's WRONG" A good "thunk" in the head would be so much easier, you'd think! But, no, He's gentle...you can't even hear Him 'til you're listening close enough. I wasn't listening closely at all until the trip on the way to Rhonda's after seeing you guys. So see, it was a miracle that you saw Jesus in me at all.

Alayne, thank you for being so open with me that morning on the couch. It was wonderful to be close to you like that, share the similar background experiences and know you understand me, and I understand you. So rare. So beautiful. You are priceless. I know Daniel couldn't have a better girl.

And we could just go on and on and on about how much we love eachother, how cool we are...which we ARE... but....there is ONE person to thank SOOO much more than anyone else, for working on ALL OF US (EVERYONE who knows Him), and molding us, slowing chipping away the rotten stuff that only stifles and suffocates us, creating something beautiful inside of us. I hope I can remember that He is 100% responsible for anything good in my life...including meeting and knowing unique individuals like you, Daniel and Rhonda!

:D

You know, fellowship with other Christians is something you can't trade for anything else in this world. Makes you kinda wonder what it's going to be like in HEAVEN.....

I can't WAIT!

Whoohoo! Let the party begin!

(ok, i'm done...sorry for rambling, Steve!)

If Arkansas is this great, then just think what Heaven will be like. Let's get going already!

Forever,
Alayne
