'Till Death Do Us Part

Karla, you are more than I ever hoped for.
I'll treasure you all the days of our life.
I wish you a happy birthday
as you press on toward completion in Christ,
where year by year the Karla God intended
is lived out to his glory and our joy.

Karla:

Happy Birhday and may you have many more. It was interesting to read about your life as a Marine and to learn about a part of your life I knew nothing about. Quite a different life from what you do now. I always enjoy your newsletter as if gives direction for my "knee exercises".

Love and Happy Birthday

Karla, may our Lord Jesus continue to bless you next 40 years as you love Him, trust Him and obey Him. You are an inspiration to me in so many ways. I love you, my sister, my friend.

Keep smiling... it's contagious.

Happy Birthday!
Enjoyed the Marine pictures and stories! I still remember meeting you all back in Dallas and being floored that you had been a Marine! But the strength and commitment had always been evident in all the facets of your life! Gratefully it's focused on living for God!

Thank you Lord for sharing Karla (and family!) with us back in Dallas and now through the wonder of Internet communication. What an encouragement and inspiration to us she has been -- to be all that You want us to be and to remember how much You love all the world's people. May You bless her especially today as she turns 40!

Have a great Day
In His Love, Bill and Jane

Although we only met you briefly, your zeal for the Lord, your love for your family, your passion for the lost were amazing. We are praying for your steadfast love of the Lord to never cease all the days of your life here, for your childrent to rise up and call you blessed and Russ to love you as Christ does the church. Praying for wisdom on your 40th.
Love, Travis, Julie, Isaiah and Micah Williams

Karla,

Wishing you a fabulous 40th birthday. I had no idea you had such a wild side!

Lord, we ask that you bless Karla with all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places as she celebrates her birthday. Give her spiritual wisdom and understanding as she serves you as a wife, mother and ambassador of Christ. Supply all of her needs according to your riches in Christ Jesus and grant her Your peace that passes all understanding.

God bless you all! Caroline has your picture on your nightstand and prays for you every night.

Love in Christ,
Craig Willingham

Hey, Karla. I wish you a very Happy Birthday today. You don't look any older than the first time I saw you 11 years ago. I thank my God for sending me to the same place He sent you in order for me to know you (and your entire family) You are ALL such a blessing. May your day be spent with much celebration for the day you were born. (thanks to Russell for the "Marine history" Love to you!!
