You are so thoughtful and encouraging. I will look forward to the upcoming blogs that you write. I am going to start an "Encouragement file". I always wondered what to do with the precious notes and cards that I have recieved from loved ones and close friends. You and Carolyn are such a blessing to me in my walk with the Lord. I love to see you both and I always praise God for your presence in my life. With sincerity and love, Diane Klopfer Sweet James,

I started it years ago when I first started in ministry, and I called it "happy notes". I did re-read the notes and letters often, for there were times I doubted myself and what I was doing. In reading those, it confirmed what God was telling me along... "I am with you, always.. I will carry you , enable you and bless you, as you do MY work." Sometimes I would forget that, so those letters helped me. When I left Christ Church, Marianne Wilson made me a book with notes from all the kids and many from the families that I was blessed to serve. Precious little crayon notes and pictures from little ones, and sweet notes from their moms and dads. That is one of my most prized possessions. I will treasure that until the day I meet Jesus.

It is simply a reminder from God's call to multiply and sow into people's lives. For when we pass on, the only thing that remains is the legacy we left behind. Even in our death, lives can still be touched for His Glory! God bless you and the Loftin clan, Lenia Brother James,
