Dan and Deb

Typically, I would never share a letter that I receive from Deborah. They are personal and they are each very meaningful to me.

This one is a true love letter. It says so much in so little words. Truly I love her. We have been through terrible times together and those times have brought us extremely close to each other. Here it is (slightly edited),

“Sometimes I want to breath you in. Get to know each other all over again. There are times when we are really close and times that even being in the same room we couldn’t see each other.

This has been a long journey. We are almost to our resting place. However we both know that this is only a rest stop along the way. This journey we are on will go on until we see Christ. I’m very thankful that we are on this trip together.

I can see us together over the years, becoming closer and closer still. It’s nice to be able to visualize our future together. Even though I am not clear on what it will be, I know it will be together.”

God is using Deb and I as I write this. He is equipping us to do His good works. We have been apart for 13 1/2 months and not a day is wasted in which God is teaching us more and more about ourselves and each other. He is teaching us that without Him, we are nothing. He is teaching us what it means to be bone of bone and flesh of flesh.

Debbie, I miss you. I get so sad at times missing you and wanting to hold you and look into your eyes. Sometimes, the depression takes over and I feel as though I’m sinking into a pit of despair. I know that this is for HIS plan however and not ours. He will reunite us when He is ready and that is where I place my faith. In God and in God alone. I love you.
