Leaving With Heartfelt Thanks from Ken Neilsen - August 26, 2002           YOU KNOW I'VE BEEN ON THE INTERNET SINCE 1997, AND HAVE COME TO KNOW MOST OF YOU EITHER THROUGH WRITING EMAILS, OR VISITING YOUR WEBSITES. SOME OF YOU ARE RELATED TO ME BY BLOOD, OR THROUGH MARRIAGE. MOST OF YOU HAVE BECOME GOOD FRIENDS OVER THE YEARS.            THE REASON I AM WRITING ONCE MORE TO YOU IS TO TELL YOU HOW WONDERFUL IT HAS BEEN TO KNOW YOU, AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THE JOY AND HAPPINESS YOU HAVE SENT MY WAY.           IN LEAVING THE INTERNET WAS A VERY HARD DECISION TO MAKE, BUT I'VE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH MY HEALTH, ESPECIALLY MY EYE SIGHT FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS, AS MOST OF YOU ALREADY KNOW.            IT DOES SEEM TO ME THOUGH, THAT I HAVE CAUSED SOME OF YOU HARD FEELINGS ABOUT ONE THING OR ANOTHER. IF I HAVE HURT ANY OF YOU IN ANY WAY, I ASK YOUR FORGIVENESS, AND I AM DEEPLY SORROWFUL, AND REGRET VERY MUCH THAT I HAVE BROUGHT YOU ANY DISCOMFORT, OR DISTRESS. I ONLY WISH YOU THE VERY BEST, PLEASE FIND IT IN YOUR HEART TO FORGIVE ME, THAT'S ALL I ASK EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU WHO HAS BEEN HURT BECAUSE OF ME, OR MY ACTIONS TO DO.            IN CLOSING, I WANT TO SAY, YOU ALL HAVE BEEN SUCH A BLESSING TO ME. YOU GAVE ME LOTS OF ENCOURAGEMENT WHEN I'VE BEEN DOWN, AND PUT UP WITH MY BELLY-ACHING, AND SELF-PITY. WELL, I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU ALL A BREAK. NO MORE EMAIL LETTERS FROM ME. OKAY?            IT HAS BEEN A PLEASURE TALKING TO YOU ALL ONCE AGAIN. BY THE WAY, IF YOU ARE EVER IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD, DROP BY, YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOMED IN MY HOME, THAT'S FOR SURE. IF YOU WISH TO PHONE ME, ALL THE INFO IS DOWN BELOW. IF YOU STILL USE THE SNAIL MAIL, AND WISH TO WRITE ME, BY ALL MEANS. IT WILL BE GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU.            WELL, I HAVE TRIED TO TELL YOU WHAT'S ON MY MIND, AND HOW I FEEL IN MY HEART. THANKS AGAIN FOR ALLOWING ME TO COME INTO YOUR LIFE VIA THE INTERNET. TO QUOTE FROM AN OLD SONG THAT I LOVE:            "IT'S WONDERFUL, IT'S MARVELOUS, THAT YOU SHOULD CARE FOR ME. IT'S AWFUL NICE, IT'S PARADISE, IT'S WHAT I LONG TO SEE."           WELL, I'LL LEAVE YOU NOW WITH ONE SHORT MESSAGE FROM GOD'S HOLY WORD: "BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND THOU SHALL BE SAVED, AND THY HOUSE."            I DID. I PUT MY TRUST IN JESUS, AND I WILL NEVER EVER REGRET IT. HE HAS SAVED MY WIFE, MY CHILDREN AND ME, FROM HELL AND THE GRAVE. HE GAVE US ALL A NEW LIFE HERE ON EARTH, AND ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN WHEN WE CONFESSED OUR SINS, AND ASKED CHRIST TO COME INTO OUR HEARTS. HE'S WITH US NOW FOREVER AND EVER. FORGIVING, HELPING, LOVING, HEALING, YOU NAME IT. WE ARE SO BLESSED HAVING JESUS IN OUR MIDST.            "PRAISE AND ADORATION TO THE KING OF KINGS, AND THE LORD OF LORDS, OUR SAVIOUR JESUS CHIRST, WHO IS TO THE KEEPER OF OUR SOULS!"
