Thanks for sending this Robb. Larry holds warm spot in my heart. His music
inspired my faith and challenged my walk in college. I pray for an overflow
of God's grace and strength in this season of battling darkness.

Grace and Peace,

"To find my home in one sentence, concise, as if hammered in metal. Not to
enchant anybody. Not to earn a lasting name in posterity. An unnamed need
for order, for rhythm, for form, which three words are opposed to chaos and
nothingness."
Czeslaw Milosz

"When we step into the family, by the act of being born, we do step into a
world which is incalculable, into a world which has its own strange laws,
into a world which could do without us, into a world we have not made. In
other words, when we step into the family we step into a fairy-tale."
GK Chesterton

"Vocatus atque non vocatus Deus aderit"
