I am left speechless at the thought of His life in you, Major. I was longing and preparing to make the journey towards CO in order to meet you face to face and heart to heart. The reality of Christ as life and Christ IN Us as our only hope of glory as stated in your beloved verse Col 1:27, echos in my spirit and soul. My dad still has your original 8-track tapes of sermons. My dad proposed to my mother at one of your conferences back in the seventies in estes park.

 

I studied at Taurenhof with Hans-Peter Royer this fall of 2007. The passion for Christ as my life and as my source of it all grew and grew as a result of His life in you. You have impacted, revitalized, educated, challenged, "healed", and imprinted people all over the world. Oh I long to sit at His feet with you and honor Him. You are beholding the One whom you taught us to truly behold. We love you. We miss you. We rejoice with you, over you, and for you. I too long to leave Passion Himself, Chr ist, to all I meet in these short days. I cherish you and have read every book you wrote. I will continue to quote you to many and pray for such a a divine love affair you displayed. I love you too Mrs. Thomas and would be honored to take your hand someday and thank you for all you have demonstrated through your home and marriage. Oh to God be the glory great things He has done!
