This is number six of fifty. Explanation of the series here. This post is for one of first people I met when I moved to Colorado nearly 30 years ago, and became a very dear friend.
Dear Cherrlyn, It's hard to believe it's been 28 years since we met. I remember how you welcomed me into your home. I recall seeing your bible out on the coffee table. I was surprised, yet hopeful. Surprised because it was obvious you actually read your bible and hopeful that I might find answers to the struggles I had in my life.
You introduced me to the most amazing friend-Jesus! If you hadn't been such a nurturing, caring friend, I'm not sure where my life would have taken me.
How can I possibly thank-you for all you invested in my life? You helped me become a better homemaker, wife, mother, housekeeper, and you discipled me.
The gift of your prayers sustained me on many occasions. I am so thankful you stood with me during Christopher's birth and on so many other times. I learned to pray and intercede as we met weekly in your living room.
I thank God for you and think of you often. Let's have lunch soon!
