Goodbye Sweedes

There are times in life when one meets people that just pass by and recollections are not so meaningful. But then there are times where one meets people who will affect and truly impact them. As for the last few weeks, this is what a group of relatively recent friends have become; a group that has made a powerful impact in my life. And to want them to be here would be selfish. So, I am thankful for the time that I have had to spend with them.

The memories have become many; and as one said to me, “It is as if we have known you for a long time.” I am moved to the same sentiments. As another has said, “We know why God sent you to France. It was to meet us.” And, if for no other reason, I am sure that I have already fulfilled part of my mission here in France. I have been truly touched to a part of my being that has needed to be filled by friendship and joy.

The fact is official. The words are certain. The reality is true. I miss all of you and I hope to meet all of you once again. May the Lord add his watch, care, and grace over each and everyone of you. Truly, I have been helped to see from the beginning of my European journey the true reason as to why I exist - to help spread the Three Angeles’ Messages to all the world in this generation as a young person!
