Dear brother Gary,

Yesterday began a day of trial for me which ended up on my knees crying before God and feeling completely worthless.  I felt hell bound and hopeless.  It wasn't anything huge and horrifying, just one of those days when everyone including fellow Christians are taking pot shots at you.  After reading the account of the seven Columbians who went to Hell, the worthless feelings overwhelmed me and I just cried, feeling miles away from our Lord.

Today, I logged onto fivedoves as I do first thing in the morning and there was your reminder of how much God loves us.  I cannot begin to tell you how much I needed to hear those words.  I've always been convinced that our postings are led by God and not all posts speak to all people, but this one spoke to me for sure.

Thanks to you and to all my brothers and sisters here who make a safe place for me in this world.  I cannot wait to meet you all in the air.

Love, YSIC, Launni
