    amen sista friend,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I love this: &quot;I don&#039;t want to be seduced by my culture into thinking I need to have or be or do anything other than what God would have me have and be and do&quot;.  It&#039;s a little bit of a rough road I think.  You&#039;re totally up for it though....and thanks for your perspective on it&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

    Hi, Ali....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Congratulations on your engagement! I am so happy for you...I came over to your blog through 6-yr. Med, as well as Solo Femininity, I&#039;ve been reading for a couple months now...and as I&#039;ve read, I&#039;ve been pressed by the Lord to pray for you and Mercy Ship patients, I&#039;ve laughed hard, and been moved to crying. You are a wonderful writer, and I only wish I could meet you. &lt;img src=&quot;http://alirae.net/blog/templates/default/img/emoticons/smile.png&quot; alt=&quot;:-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
May God bless and keep you, and congratulations again! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With love, in God&#039;s abounding grace&lt;br /&gt;
Jean Marie F.

    Hi, I know I don&#039;t know you - but I work at the IOC for Mercy Ships in Texas and I browse crew blogs every once in a while. &lt;img src=&quot;http://alirae.net/blog/templates/default/img/emoticons/smile.png&quot; alt=&quot;:-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt; Phil Chandra was on the ship when I was there two years ago - congrats to you both! I wish you all the best.

I am so pleased for you. I had to read this twice before I realised it was for real! &lt;br /&gt;
Do you remember me from June on the ship?...one of the mad 2 English ladies that you collected from the airport. I worked in the OR for 3 weeks and on leaving we modelled some knitted jumpers a lady made for the kids on the ward. &lt;br /&gt;
Do I know Phil from the AFM? Would be good to stay in touch with you...Congratulations. X

We&#039;re all rejoicing for you and can&#039;t wait to hear more about the wedding as it unfolds, too. &lt;img src=&quot;http://alirae.net/blog/templates/default/img/emoticons/wink.png&quot; alt=&quot;;-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

    I&#039;m so very excited for you.  I shared this with a friend of mine earlier because we both know that God can have something like this for us if we are patient.  This is just so beautiful!
