SJohn, I am speechless.

Which we know is unusual for me.

I printed out your post and am carrying it around.

No one ever said something like that to me in my life. (And certainly no man!)

...

But do please post an update. I always wonder what is happening with you.

I'll write more later, too speechless now.

I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord with courage.
Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
