Charles Blackburn, a gentle friend to me and an inspiration to me and my children.

Jeremiah 29:11,12 says, "For I well know the thoughts that I am thinking toward you, thoughts of peace, and not of calamity, to give you a future and a hope And you will call me and pray to me, and I will listen to you."
