Magic Man: I think about you often. They are good thoughts too. That is what the Word says to do!(Philippians 4:5) I received your letter sometime ago and misplaced it until the other day. Thanks for allowing me to connect with you via "Betweenthebars." Must be wonderful to study the Word in Hebrew and/or Greek. Talk about indepth study!! I still have "The Message Bible" which you gave me. It has the ability to open the Word using today's English. Joey, Each time I see that Bible in the bookcase and each time I pass the condo where you live, I remember our good times. Blessings, I love you, Man! miles
Hi Ronald, We used to write many years ago but lost contact. Thought I would look up your site and sat the last hour (on works time haha) glued to my screen and now feel like I have entered another world. You write so well that us readers feel like we are sat there with you, while telling a story. So sorry about your friend. A close friend of mine was executed back in 1999 in Missouri.
I fully intend to sit down and send you some more mail but I had to let you know straight away that reading this is so moving.
Your take care

I must tell you. Your post could not have come at a better time. What I find is your words so very relevant to the outside as well as the inside. Good looking out...Inspiring looking in. What I find amazing...is your words drip with character. Its just been a rotten day today...you gave me the inspiration I needed. I even had to print your post to remind me move forward and refuse to look back.
David, Wow, where do I start? First I am glad that you rely on God, not only on yourself, and are in the midst of finding peace within. Inner peace is a gift few people ever attain. Paul (in the Bible) wrote several times about being content in prison; however, his Roman citizenship entitled him to a few amenities that may or may not compare. Anyway, I pray you will be able to relate to that aspect, and take comfort….. Currently, I am facing life’s challenges as best as possible. The immediate apprehension is the unknown location of our next duty station in June; it will remain a secret until the list is published in mid-April. Not really a catastrophic challenge, but extremely inconvenient. I am ready to complete my service and take more control over my circumstances. As for the simple things in life, I know what you mean. I have been so focused on other things that I rarely take time to reflect on what truly matters. Finally, from your letters, it appears that you continually strive to improve yourself, Spiritually, mentally, and physically. I hope you continue to find techniques to assist others. I will pray for you! Sam
Excellent rap! Keep spreading the word and keep writing the word. Our mothers must have conferenced with each other since I got the very same advice from my mother. Though she is deceased now, I still hear her voice sending out the very same messages you heard from your mother. I think it is part of the universal wisdom God send down to mothers. I look forward to reading some more of your songs. I wish I could hear a recording of you rapping the songs.
I always appreciate hearing from you through your blog. I am glad you are doing okay and find the food to be decent. As a person who does not like to eat meat, but loves food, I probably would have problems eating the food. You do describe a varity of food and I am sure you do not go hungry. I like the title of your latest song, "Don't Be a Fool."
