Grace Encounters
He's called Miller in his establishment. I shall not remember the food of Charlotte NC, I will remember a moment in a story I was not expecting to hear when a strong man's blue-eyes glistened from the memory of what thrust him into the arms of a God of grace and forgiveness. Truth moments don't transfer well to film; reflections within eye-water pools of blue. What do any of us have to lose to gain genuine peace? Miller encountered grace and I got to watch!
Grace should not be uncommon - but common, something I encounter each time I meet you (whether I know you or not). I've never written I was a Christian. Sometimes it's a label I didn't want to wear; but, I'm learning about grace and forgiveness. I am a follower of Jesus and learn from his words daily.
Here in Greensboro NC we're staying with an actor couple, who open their home each month to share a meal with almost 50 people. Charlie & Ruth call it The Grub. In this place I feel safe and compelled to some form of creativity. They heart-live their craft. We've been here two days and although dark-sky overcast the neighborhood's quaint beauty is restful.

That grace is the same thing that led you, Angela, Jamie, Reg, and so many others so important to Laura to accept me as a member of the group and later as her husband. I have seen that grace from you since the first night we met, when we talked for almost two hours about all things military, sci-fi, and PTSD, with a little of Laura mixed in. Keep showing that grace Danna Renee, it's your amazing and charming skill that we all need from time to time...
And I speak a multitude of great blessings on you and your marriage.
