Today I am Thankful for: Letters!

Well, I got a letter from Aaron today! Wahoo! Ok, so I let Aaron's parents read it since they were over here tonight, but I thought I should maybe clear something up. In the letter he said something to the extent of, "You found _______ girl!" (I put a blank line there to keep the name from being all over the internet.) Ok. So, this girl, whose name I will not post, has been on this forum my mom showed me that's like a support system while our guys are at boot camp. Well, I met her on there and her boyfriend is in Aaron's platoon. (GO PLATOON 1084!!) And she emailed me, and we had been emailing back and forth quite a bit, and I asked Aaron in a letter if he knew her boyfriend. Well, that's what that whole line in the letter was about. :) Just wanted to clear that up. So, I waited for the mail today. I waited and waited. And it usually comes right at 2:00, so it was two, and I went and checked. No mail. I checked three times before I had to leave for my guitar lesson, and saw the mailman on the way down the road. I was totally bummed. So, I ran down to the mailbox right after I got home from my lesson, and surfed through all the mail, and what do you know? I had a letter! I was so excited. He explained to me what scuzzing the deck is, and he also told me he got some envelopes! So, that was good! Because he had been sending letters to his family along with mine so that he could save his envelopes. So, we all sent him some, and I have sent him a bunch, but he probably won't need them now. Whatever... Anyway! He didn't mention the food in this one. I was shocked! Hahaha! Anyway. That's basically the whole content of that letter. It was short, but it made my day anyway. :) And that's all I'm going to write about for now. I shall write a more interesting post later. For now, I leave you with this:
James 1: 2-8 "My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways."
