how awesome heaven must be...........

Hi Family and Friends!! We are getting mail and messages from all over the country.....here in San Diego....it is HOT, HOT, HOT, and more HOT!!!! Brittany and I just got back from LA today..........we were at a surprise party for her High School Youth Pastor. It was an amazing and very moving day. We helped decorate and set up for the Big party. The tributes that were spoken in honoring Mike were awesome and the lives that have been touched by this amazing guy.....God is so pleased. Mike is a very humble and selfless guy....similar to Curt....puts others before his own needs or wants. There were so many of his past students that got up and spoke and some that sent videos to thank him for touching their lives and directing them to Jesus. That is so cool! Mike was the one who put together the slide shows for Curt's memorial. After the memorial....on the way home....he told his wife...I hope even 1/2 the amount of people come to my memorial and I hope I can touch peoples life like Curt did. Mike....You Will hear God speak.... Well done Good and Faithful Servant...enter in. You have touched lives more than you even know! As a parent...to have such great influenced leaders in my kids lives means so to me. The world is pulling our kids in every direction..... but the direction that points to Jesus. You All.....we are only here a short time on earth....in quiet times we need to ask ourselves....do we really know where we would go if we died tomorrow. Jesus is the only way to get to heaven. Life is so precious and we need to Make Our Days Count....Just like Curt told us. I have visions at night when I'm laying in bed, lights out and I'm praying........I can see Curt singing at the top of his lunges and worshipping God.....just like he did in church. It is so Moving to me to think of how awesome heaven must be. Have a Great week Everyone!!! Love and God bless, Shari
