Oh, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you. (I can hear Tutu Momi's low voice--late night prayers :))
That excitement that I had for LC, the beauty I found there--it wasn't the place, but it was You leading me to see. So now, I am in your grace, under your hand, walking in faith to a lifelong journey. This is a big step, but I am just as excited. I pray that you would guide me in my relationship with Noa just like you did with my time at LC/pdx.
That depth of voice, that awe, that gratefulness. Thank you for being here with me again. Thank you for answering my mother's prayers, her mother's prayers, my prayers.
Today is Ash Wednesday. I know that the basic just of it is to give something up to get closer to You. I'm pretty sure you want me to pray for Nana's salvation every day. I know that's not really "giving up" something in the traditional method, but I think that the humility necessary and the time is something.
Just got props from Catherine and Frank. Thanks God!
Okay, back to work. Just wanted to say thank you.
