Foreword

These pages are dedicated to Captain Morgan Wilston, whom I only knew for a short time, but who I began to fall in love with. While serving as an MP with the US Army's 101st Airborne division in late 2004, she was badly wounded in an attack on her convoy in Fallujah, Iraq, while saving the lives of several of her own soldiers. She passed away in a military hospital in Germany on January 7th, 2005. This is her verse; found in her uniform pocket:

"We wait in hope for the Lord; He is our help and our shield. In Him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in His holy name. May your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in you." ~ Psalm 33:20-22 (NIV)

Throughout our lives, we all need, and desire, intimacy and expression. This series of thoughts are Andrew Peterson style; straight from the heart. They're like opening a window when you have a raging fire in your house; you can't stop the fire, but you can let the smoke out. I trust somehow they might encourage someone else who identifies with them, and I welcome comments to anything shared here.
