Growing Older

It is really not too big of a deal to grow another year older...especially when the years begin to run together like they have for me. In fact, I am very thankful for each new birthday I am given because I only get the chance to stop and reflect on the past year and all that God has done to continue His faithfulness to me in spite of my seasons of unfaithfulness to Him. He truly is my best friend. He truly is a a very present help in times of need. He is my shepherd. He is my rock. He is my anchor in the darkest times. He is my Jehovah Jireh...the God who provides. He is Jehovah Rapha...the God who heals. He is Adonai...my lord. I am so thankful to be His child and to grow old as His child is the greatest gift I have ever received in my life. Thank you Father for your free gift of eternal life...given to me through your son, Jesus...who lives in my heart and life.

I hope and pray that anyone who reads this knows Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior...and as you celebrate your special birthday each year, you are able to reflect on the past year and all that you are thankful for because of God's faithfulness in your life. Join me on this journey each year. It is so worth it...the eternal rewards are worth looking forward to...Amen~~!!
