I am grateful for all the Legislators of WV who have supported the Educators of WV. Those that have spoke up in their legislative bodies in favor of HB4145. Those that have spoke up for us as Educators.

I have been watching the WV Legislature this week. I have saw the number of legislators who spoke up for Educators. The passion that they have showed for our cause.

I am thankful that my Delegate Isaac Sponaugle was one of those voices. Another was Senator Ojeda. Both of these men made passionate points in our favor.

I just hope that those legislators that are not in our favor will turn things around and do what is right.

I am grateful for the life of Billy Graham. He has changed the lives of so many people including mine. It is because of listening to him on tv that I became a Christian,

My Aunt Virginia was a strong believer in Billy Graham. She had most of the books that he had written. She always watched him on tv when he was on. She even got his magazine, Decision that we would read.

I read his book Just As I Am. It was a very inspirational read. Aunt Virginia had me read it when I lived with her.

Today as one of his daughters read scripture like her mother had taught her it reminded me of how Aunt Virginia had me read it to her. Sometimes I would have to insert my name in it. Aunt Virginia said that it would make it more meaningful and personal to read it that way.

One of the things that I remember from watching Billy Graham is the song Just As I Am. I learned all the words to it after hearing Aunt Virginia sing it during the alter calls of the Billy Graham Crusades on tv.

I liked the words said today that about Billy Graham in Heaven. I believe it will be the same for all of us. When we get to Heaven we will be more alive than we have ever been. We will just have changed addresses.
