my deepest thanks
Hello all,
seeing as i have about a week left in washington before i head off to college, i have been doing a lot of reflection. i think people, more often than not, get too distracted about life and business to really stop and look what they have in front of them. my biggest fear was that i would become to busy as a musician, or just a human being to not stop and realize the men and women that have influenced every single area of my life. i thought that if some of these people could see my thanks posted here, they could see my heart, and i would love to show everyone how many people have made me the man that i am today.
the youth ministy has been crucial in my life for the past 4 years. i know i have never posted it on my site but www.one28ministries.org is a ministry of amazing people who love God. the 5 seniors have helped hold me accountable. Tony, your love for God and love for people make me love God more, we have memories that i will never have with anyone else. Josh, your joy in Christ, has given me joy in life. Jesse, your strength in times of trials helps me perservere and help me remember that "when i am weak then i am strong." James, your hard work and your gentle heart have helped me push through tough times but help me realize that i can find my strength in Jesus Christ. you have held me accountable and have helped me realize how horrible my sin is. we have had many, many good times. Dave, I know were not one of the 5 seniors but you have had a massive impact in my life. your attitude of service and your kind heart has spoken volumes to me. your love for Jesus Christ is evident to all and you are one of the sweetest guys i have ever met. thank you for your love and for everything that you have done for me. i am humbled by the fact that you are my best friend. to all of you, i love you guys and will always have a large gap in my heart for all of you.
J-Sarr. you have led me in times of sorrow and rejoicing, sin and righteousness, anger and of joy. I cannot tell you how you have impacted my thinking and my life for eternity. your love for God and push towards righteousness makes me realize how much longer i have to go but also how far i have come with your help. thank you for your confrontation, for your steak! thank your for your integrity, and for all those brotherly hugs. I am humbled at the fact that you can love me. thank you
sk higgins. thank you for your faithfulness of preaching the Word straight and correct. You have had a profound impact in my life. I cannot tell you how much i cherish our friendship. thank you for always leaving your door open for me to tell you anything. i am encouraged to see your pursuit of righteousness and your amazing strength against the pressures of "modern religious thinking" in our world today. i love you so much and will miss you so much. thank you
thank you to the church, to my father to preach the word day in and day out faithfully. he is a God-fearing man and the most amazing father i have ever, ever, known. i love him with my whole heart and him amazed by his desire for righteousness. thank you for your wisdom and strength papa san. :)
thank you to all at the church and obviously the people that were left out. I apologize. i do love you all and will miss you terribly.
