Today is November 30th.  It is my birthday.   To be honest I never thought I would reach 50 let alone 5……………………..  Yet, here I am.

 

God has taught me a lot in the past 50 plus years.  There will always be mistakes.  How you handle you mistakes define who you are.  People come and go.  God does not.  He is here for the long haul.  Forgiveness is key to life.  Forgiveness promotes self growth and self healing.  It also provides a door way for re-unification.  There are other lessons I have learned.  Your children are only a child for a short while, enjoy it.  “Daddy,” from you child is priceless.  Walking your daughter down the aisle at her wedding is heart stopping.  Holding your first grandchild is humbling.  The eyes of your child at Christmas is fascinating.  Opening a gift from you child (not knowing what it is) and watching them get excited is so fun.

 

Most of all, I live and breathe because of God’s grace.  No other reason.  If it was not for Him, life has no meaning.  Thank you Father for my life.  You truly have blessed me.  Think about it.
