!Celebrating The Birthday Boy!

As I write these words to my dad on his Birthday, while going through pictures and remembering good times..
Looking into my father's beautiful laughing brown eyes, that i love, and his wrinkles from all the laughter in life and his gray hairs from many years of stress & hard work (guilty here, I may have caused most of them, lol)... But My dad will always have his youth, so much so, you would not think that he is now 4?*(no need to share) years old cause he looks as if he was still in his early 30’s, handsome, as always.

Happy Birthday Daddy, wishing you all the best in this life that God so graciously gave you, and too many many mannyyy more years to come. I for one, am sooo Thankful to God for giving me You as my dad, it wouldn't be the same without YOU! I've been Extremely Blessed ♥ Love YOu!

“Have you ever heard the wonderful silence just before the dawn? Or the quiet and calm just as a storm ends? Or perhaps you know the silence when you haven't the answer to a question you've been asked, or the hush of a country road at night, or the expectant pause of a room full of people when someone is just about to speak, or, most beautiful of all, the moment after the door closes and you're alone in the whole house? Each one is different, you know, and all very beautiful if you listen carefully.”
― Norton Juster

We can hope to limit our mistakes with time and increase our successes… But we are so focused on changing and being better that we miss who exactly we are. That comes into play with love… whether it be loving that special someone, loving life, or loving oneself… We can only reveal who we really are through love and that is something that can’t be learned. It is innate, but also unique as we all are.

"This is the day The Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it"
{Psalm 118:24}

Sang this song @BibleStudy last night & Oh, what a Sweet Reminder it was...

“Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!“
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!"

When it rains, it pours..

waiting patiently for the rainbow after the storm.. Realization that Adversity is just a part of life. This life is not our resting place but a sojourn to Eternity that will have mountains and valleys. There will be days when everything goes smoothly and others that simply fall apart. God’s Desire for His Children is that they remain consistent through it all.. By faith, our destination is secure. Trust in God will allow our feet to walk when visibility is limited. Submission to the supreme authority and sovereignty of God allows us peace knowing that as a Child of God our safety is secure..

"...If God is for us, who can be against us?"
{Romans 8:31b}

"The Lord is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked advance against me to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident. One thing I ask from the Lord , this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock. Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the Lord . Hear my voice when I call, Lord ; be merciful to me and answer me. My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, Lord , I will seek. Do not hide your face from me, do not turn your servant away in anger; you have been my helper. Do not reject me or forsake me, God my Savior. Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me. Teach me your way, Lord ; lead me in a straight path because of my oppressors. Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes, for false witnesses rise up against me, spouting malicious accusations. I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord ; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord ."
{Psalm 27:1-14}
