Tomorrow is my birthday! I am feeling especially thankful for LIFE on this birthday, thankful that God has kept me safe and whole for the last 34 years, and best of all, hasn't treated me as my sins deserve! Amen!
Here is the entry from Jesus Calling on my birthday:
August 2
Bring me the sacrifice of your time: a most precious commodity. In this action-addicted world, few of my children take time to sit quietly in my Presence. But for those who do, blessings flow like streams of living water. I, the One from whom all blessings flow, am also blessed by our time together. This is a deep mystery; do not try to fathom it. Instead, glorify me by delighting in me. Enjoy me now and forever!
I think this was written just for the task-oriented, event-oriented, go-go-go person that I am! I would love to make this a life goal; to sit with my daddy and enjoy Him. Doesn't that sound more pleasant than continually striving for more stuff, more perfection, more experiences, more, more, more? It seems more restful, more peaceful, more life-giving to me! If you pray for anything for me on my 34th birthday, let it be that. Thanks for being in my life.
