REFLECTIONS ON THE 3RD YEAR OF MY 6TH DECADE OF LIFE January 5th is my 63rd birthday, and I must say that God has been mighty good to me! Put simply, God’s grace is the bottom-line and totality of my worldview and testimony. For in spite of myself, my occasional lack of understanding, my errors along the way and imperfections too numerous to mention, God allows me to somehow help others and to have some minor impact in building His Kingdom. I have learned a few things…: 1) God’s blessings are too numerous to count. 2) A gratitude attitude attracts positive and productive results. 3) Showing respect is an indicator of personal security and success. 4) Joy is the assurance that Christ is at the center of our circumstances. 5) Love is mission critical and is practically demonstrated in relationships. 6) Forgiveness actually serves the one who does the forgiving. 7) Marriage requires work, but is the greatest of human blessings. 8) Children are the heritage of the Lord and the legacy of their parents. 9) Spiritual and physical health enable purpose and destiny. 10) Attitude determines altitude. 11) God’s grace and mercy are awesome gifts to be treasured eternally. 12) Two mutually committed wrongs never ever equal one right. 13) True friendship is exceedingly rare and priceless. 14) You can always depend on God. 15) Regardless of our sensory perceptions, the Word works. 16) Faith is the substance and evidence of our highest dreams. 17) We must never compromise for expedience or convenience. 18) We will repeat our mistakes until we learn from them. 19) God first, family second, ministry third. 20) It’s always too soon to quit. There are other life-lessons I have learned, but I deemed it appropriate to share just a few with you, my family and my friends. From my heart, I thank you for being there…with me…and for me. Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
