msmarkieanna: Folks, I was quite honestly humbled and encouraged by this e mail I received today! I WAS BLIND BUT NOW I SEE Dear Ms. Markie,  I am so humbled by your web posting of your friend you were waiting for in the parking lot.  I have been so honored by the Lord to have not even known I was being used for His purpose.  I honestly didn’t ever think my presence would have mattered.  Growing up I did not have friends much and I guess I am so overwhelmed that you were waiting on me and you almost left.  I just read and reread that posting and I just had to sit in silence and thank Jesus for letting me get there in time before you left.  I also thank Him for showing me that someone did look for strength from me of all people.  This was such an important day and stepstone in your journey and to think that I was to be a part of that is just so humbling and flattering.  I guess it took me reading that posting to really see that I was important to you that day and that is so awesome a compliment I can’t describe it.  Ms. Markie, (I call my friends that I respect highly Ms. ___).  So Ms. Markie, in honor of that beautiful spiritual awakening,  I spent the last 2 hours, making you an e-mail with a picture of blue mountains, dark blue typing, and light blue background paper!  Now it only took me 2 hours to figure this out, girl, so I wanted it to be a little pretty while you read it.  You highly honored me on your Day and for that I can never thank you.  You know, I’ve been home sick and now I know why.  The Lord has shown me many things while I was quiet and had time to listen.  Now you told me everything in that posting but I never really heard it like you were feeling it.  I am so thankful I learned this.  Too busy with life to really hear it, feel it, and see it;  Thank you for letting God use you!  I think I have changed these last few days - not anxious or angry or loud, but quiet and humbled and (not so loud).  Honestly, Ms. Markie, this was such an eye opener you will never know!!!!!  Thank you, Sweetie, for giving me the strength for tomorrow,   You will never know!!!!!!
