October 1988

To Steve Vanderhilt and Larry Ablen

(friends at Reformed Bible College)

my friends

my dear and trusted friends

how could I ever repay you

for what you’ve done for me

my gratitude knows no bounds

it cannot be expressed

by my merely human lips

you’ve reassured my grasp on life

again I feel its joy

again I live for Christ

thank you

on earth God has no servants

more faithful than loving friends

After an hour of talk

about my future

and its connection

to God and to Beth.

Thanks guys!
