Showing Original Post only (View all)This is so hugely important for me to say. [View all]
AT NO POINT THAT I CAN REMEMBER HAS A SINGLE DU MEMBER SAID ANYTHING MEAN, DISPIRITING, ACUSATORY, OR IN ANY OTHER WAY DEMEANED WHAT I'VE GONE THROUGH THESE LAST ALMOST 3 YEARS.
THAT IS THE GREATEST MIRACLE OF THEM ALL, BECAUSE IT'S STILL ONGOING.
YOU'VE TOUCHED ME A THOUSAND TIMES AND THEN SOME, AND TODAY, I FEEL YOU ALL TOUCH ME AT THE SAME TIME. MY GOD, HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO BLESSED, BECAUSE I CERTAINLY DIDN'T DESERVE THAT.
AS I REFLECT AND ANSWER SO MANY KIND WORDS YOU'VE SENT RECENTLY, PLEASE KNOW I'M SITTING HERE CRYING YET AGAIN AS IT DAWNS ON ME THAT I'VE RECEIVED A LIFETIMES WORTH OF GRACE IN THESE LAST TWO YEARS WITHOUT A SINGLE NEGATIVE WORD.
FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME LATELY I AM MOVED TO THE CORE OF MY BEING.
THANK YOU
LOVE, JOHN MCKUSICK
