Hello brothers and sisters, I am so glad the Lord saw you through another day. I know I say this every time I write but it is not simply a greeting, I really am happy that you are safe and alive. I am glad that you have been given another day to serve the Lord and to be all you can be in the Lord. Tonight is going to be a very quick post, I just want to say thank you to all that wished me a happy birthday and thank you to the ones that honored me so very much today. The true honor and glory goes to the Father above! I would be nothing without Him and I hope and pray never to forget it or take it for granted! I pray the same for all of you, may we all learn to be content in whatever state we find ourselves.The Lord is good and truly does bring beauty from ashes and I thank Him so much for every day of grace that I have been given. Thank God for His grace and His mercy, without it I would be lost.

The most wonderful gift I was given today was my family all being with me. I was only missing a few but was able to talk to almost all of them as well. The Lord has blessed me in more ways than I can count and the more I learn to be content with what I have the more I see the blessings the Lord has showered me with over the years. I am not rich, nor am I even well off but I am better off than some and not okay in just enough ways to keep me clinging to Jesus for all my needs.
