Letter
I
Have Seen The Face Of God:
That’s right, I have seen the Face of God
here at the Barnstead Parade Fire Station, during the breakfast that was
held for me after I shattered the femur in my right leg. The face of God
was in those people who attended my breakfast and left donations to help
me, and the little children who gave their money saved in their coin
banks to help me. I was very humbled and amazed that I touched so many
lives, I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve this love, but I will
continue to try harder to help more people like those who have helped
me. May Our Father place his blessings upon all those through whom I saw
his face.
The Face of God is alive in Barnstead and the surrounding
towns, I have seen his love in the people I meet every day. In Barnstead
and the surrounding towns, they have listened to his loving commandment
that he gave us at the last supper. Jesus said! I give to you my
commandment, love one another, as I have loved you. This I have
witnessed. I pray Lord Father in Heaven, that you help us to spread this
wonderful feeling of love that you have given us throughout this word.
I wish to thank all those who helped to put this breakfast together,
and those who donated their time to help cook a wonderful breakfast, and
those who donated supplies, and those who came to my breakfast and those
who sent their love by mail and other ways of help. I am so thankful for
all your help, you are my family more than you are my friends, God bless
and watch over you always.
All My Love
Andrew Houle
