Jesus Loves Laura?

Jesus Loves Laura, San Gabriel Valley, California Jesus Loves Laura, San Gabriel Valley, California

I have been hiking regularly for over a month now, both with and without my camera. Two days ago I encountered this in the hills near my house. The only words I could make out was the + Laura. I figured it was a guy doing something romantic for his girl. How sweet! Then I went back last night with my camera and once I looked through my viewfinder I was able to see what it said. All of the sudden, it felt sobering to realize this perhaps didn't have such a happy ending. However one question remains for me, what does it say between the names Laura and Michael? It appears to be a "1 43" but I'm not sure. I looked on the internet, and no biblical passages fit. Nor does it say, "and". How it reads to me is, "Jesus loves Laura and Michael" but I can't quite connect the dots due to the ambiguous nature of those three letters. I even looked through the local news sites and search engines, came up with nothing.

Laura and Michael? Laura and Michael?

Does anyone have any answers or theories about what this message represents?

I'm not a religious person but the only thing I can think of is Psalm 143


Not sure that is it though. Interesting find.

Wow. That is dark, if that is what it means. It would seem to fit the bill though.

I found something that says it a private way to say "I love You".
The numbers represent how many letters are in each word I (1) Love (4) you (3).
Do I win a prize?

I looked it up myself now and I think you're right. :-) Now I'm trying to figure out the Jesus part.

Thanks Mark. I'm actually thinking that this guy Michael was offering a prayer to his lost love.
