TxVenture Posted July 22, 2008 Author #27 Posted July 22, 2008 I want to thank everyone for their kind thoughts and prayers. It amazes me that people that I have never met take time out of their lives to think kind thoughts and pray for me. This place is truly a family in so many ways that I am humbled to be part of it. If there is anything that I can do for anyone of you, please let me know. Again thank each and everyone of you. Don H.
Freebird Posted July 22, 2008 #28 Posted July 22, 2008 Don, If you want to do something for us then I would ask that you just continue to get better. That is the greatest gift that you could give us. We do care and will continue our prayers.
PBJ Posted July 22, 2008 #29 Posted July 22, 2008 Don continued recovery and success in remission. Keeping you in my thoughts and hoping for all the best for you. Phil.
autopilot Posted July 23, 2008 #30 Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) Excellent report..Praise the Lord for sure. We'll keep pouring it on!! Don H, I know you're not looking for this, but I feel driven to put it to paper, so to speak, so bear with me. The rest of you too! I "need" to say this. So, forgive the length. I'm not trying to speak for anyone, but I surmise that for most of us here and particularly those who practice doing this sort of thing regularly (i.e.- praying for people we don't know)....that's kind of the point. We understand that you and everyone else here are as much brothers to us as if we were actual siblings. That and the simple truth that we wouldn't represent ourselves or our faith (whatever it happens to be) very well, if we didn't! I personally consider it an honor to do this small thing for someone and I am more than happy at every chance to do so. (I love talkin to the Big Guy) And, I know that it works.. I don't really know anyone here either. I met a few, briefly at our meet & eat and I've corresponded by email with a couple of folks about specific things, posted here and there, but by and large, I'm one of those forgettable guys that nobody can remember when their name comes up (unless I irritate them--lol) and that's OK. That doesn't bother me. The way these folks are...THAT is why I too, like this place. Except for a few exceptions, to one degree or another, everyone here, for lack of a better description, "gets it" and is always, ALWAYS ready to offer their help, their knowledge, their hearts, tears and yeah...their prayers and good wishes. They will give of their time and wealth, whether it is great or small, when real need arises. In my experience, it is truly an unusual thing for a group/forum like this to be this "genuine" and caring. Maybe I'm just being foolish, but I think not. I've been called that & worse, before. I see what these people do and what they say and get an impression of how they think and I just really, really like these folks. So, before I totally run everybody off, I'll stop. Just know, if you need prayer, (any of you) tell me. Send a PM or email and consider it done.....with zeal!! OK, now you can stick a fork in me 'cause I'm done!!
