Dear Bro. Earl,
May God give you the energy you need and keep your courage up. I love hearing you teach. And it makes my day when you hang around in the morning after teaching your high schoolers' Bible class at the academy and discuss theology with me.
Dear Mrs. Shannen,
I know your load is heavy - may the Lord be your strength.
Dear Bro. Dennis,
You taught me so much. You were my mentor, my friend. I miss you. Please come back.
Dear Mrs. Carrie,
You're still beautiful. May the Lord truly give you the desires of your heart.
Dear Maxwell,
You are growing so fast. I've prayed for you twice as long as you've been alive, and I'm still praying for you. May God make something amazing of your life.
Dear Austin,
I miss you and Ava so much. Your sunny friendship warms my memories. May God use you greatly where you are.
Dear Ava,
I miss you and Austin so much. What a wonderful heart shines through the wonderful smile you have. Thank you for keeping in touch with us at Victory Rd.! God bless your adventure!
Dear Aron,
I'm so proud of you for how you're striving to be a true man of God. Keep Him at the center of your precious family.
Dear Henley,
You are such a wonderful wife and mother. May the Lord bless your efforts to do what's right. Keep loving your husband, keep loving your boys. Keep experimenting!
Dear Simon,
There's still hope. Come home.
Dear Joy,
The devil wants you, but God is stronger! The little decisions you're making now are setting the stage for the rest of your life. Oh darling! The glittery pleasures that tempt teenagers are so fleeting - the glitter falls off, and years later if God grants you wisdom, you will look at them and wonder how in the world you allowed yourself to give your time and love to that naked junk. How my heart aches over you! God fight for you!
Dear Toby,
Bless your loving heart. Yes, you are human and you've made mistakes. No, I don't agree with you on everything. But I respect you so much. Let the Lord keep making you incredible.
Dear Lindy,
You are a true friend. Stay humble, but don't get too down on yourself. You're on the right track to making an excellent wife - stay Toby's best friend.
Dear Archer,
I think you've found your life's work. If that's the case, pour your whole self into it. But please be so careful - as you're cleaning, it's easy to get dirty yourself. Seek the Lord's advice in EVERYthing.
Dear Law,
Oh my precious, how can I write to you all that's in my heart? I continually praise our blessed Christ for the man He's making you into. God bless you, my dear young friend.
Dear Abigail,
Your happiness makes me happy. I can always count on you for a corny joke or a teasing jab or a tidbit of spiritual wisdom to boost my spirit. Keep singing.
Dear Piper,
I'm continually amazed at your store of patience and your depth of maturity. You still have so much to learn. God make you a great lady, my dearest girl! And don't give up your piano :) .
Dear Bro. S.,
Thank you for loving your wife and trying to raise your kids for the Lord. Thank you for your country simplicity and wisdom. Thank you for being so transparent and honest with your Sunday School class. Thank you for your friendship and for your perceptive encouragement.
Dear Mrs. S.,
Thank you for loving your husband and trying to raise your kids for the Lord. Your knack for putting people at ease and your heart of welcome are both a great example and a special gift; there is a reason everyone loves you - you love everyone.
Dear Trent,
You are growing up so well. Keep your contentment, yet yearn for more of God. Thank you for your down-to-earth country friendship. And for blessing others with your music.
Dear Peter,
I can't believe what a wonderful young man you're becoming. I mean, I can, but I've known you long enough to remember you as a little kid! You are so unconscious of your good looks, and that makes you even more handsome. Keep your sunny disposition - a joyful spirit is a blessing to the owner as well as to those around him.
Dear Trent and Peter's mom,
You are such a blessing to me. Thank you for your advice on photography, your smoothie recipes, your secretarial tips, your humility, and your sweet smile. Thank you for treating me as an equal, even though I'm so much younger.
Dear Lela,
Are you happy? True happiness comes from joy in Christ. Don't waste your life. Btw, I miss you. Remember Chicago?
Dear Mrs. Renae,
I'm so thankful the Lord has allowed us to stay in touch. He is stronger than anything fighting you!
Dear Nicole,
What can I say? There's only one Nicole. Am I still 'one of your best friends'? May the Lord grow you into the woman He wants you to be - don't resist the changes He wants to make.
Dear Russell,
You have the gift of a joyful spirit - what a blessing you are to so many! Use your talent for the glory of God - don't let the bright lights blind you.
Dear Lora, Lindsay, Dolan, and Randy,
I have no idea what happened to you. But I know the One who does. I trust that He is watching out for you. I loved you.
My Dear Brown-Eyed Boy,
Wherever you are, God keep you.
Dear Bro. Mike, Bro. Mike's wife, and Camille,
I'm so thankful for the amazing adventure the Lord is allowing you to live! Don't wait too long to come back for a visit though - it's been so long since that last hug.
Dear Bro. Nick and Lydia,
I'm praying for you.
My Dear Dr. Pepper Kids,
Oh how I hope and pray that you will give yourselves to the Lord! You aren't kids anymore, but a young man and two young women. If you start now with Christ while you're young, life will be better - trust me.
Dear Trissy,
I love you.
Dear others-I'd-wanted-to-include-a-note-to-in-this-post,
I am so sorry, but it's 11:00 P.M. and I've got to be at work right after 7:00 tomorrow morning - I've got to go to bed. But that doesn't change the fact that I love you and hope you will love the Lord. Maybe I can write later.
Most of the others I actually have written will never see their notes. But I needed to write them.
Soli Deo Gloria!
-Kyrie<><
