Dear Paul

I received
you wire
regarding Peter
Kind
Bold
Peter

Oh Paul
It is awful
what was done
Awful awful
awful

Sometimes
I imagine
I have a wife
children
Even a house
on a small
plot of land

Sometimes
I imagine
worshipping without
the threat of being
Beaten mutilated
Crucified

Sometimes
I just imagine

Of course
you are right
To die is gain
It is worth
all I have given up

I will continue
to pray that soon
you will be released
and for healing
of your liver ailmeny

Signed
Thomas

So very touching and I could feel the grief.
You are doing a great job on these letters!

Very good Jeen. You are making the New Testament newer still. Joyce

Jeen,

I'll kind of poke myself in here at mid-point, intermission, if you will. I do enjoy your correspondence and for me your writings emphasize the reality of the true letters written in the Bible. Thomas, Peter and Paul were real people writing real letters amongst themselves. Each letter you write is like a new treasure... an insight into the Word of God. Like I'm reading a real letter from Thomas. Looking forward to the next four letters. Oh, glad to read that Thomas is maturing in the Lord and getting over his complex of being labeled by the other disciples. -Bob
