Some pre-birthday reflections..

1. Being a christian simply means that I have a relationship with God. I am a Christian.

2. My worthiness is not measured by my usefulness in God's Kingdom. I struggle with the idea that I am unworthy to receive from the Lord. Yet, through Christ I am made worthy.. This equation still boggles my mind.. it isn't easy for me to accept even though it is true. I am one who likes to be doing rather than be being.. I'd like to think that I am driven, although some may feel that I drive them up the wall! *tongue in cheek*

3. Quote from a good friend named Mary T Lee...."Number (one's age) is only a figure. The bigger the number, the more blessings we've received!" I think this is true.

4. I am really not big on birthdays. I'd like a quiet birthday. It's just nice to get a holiday every year and for that I am truly thankful! This year, I received a nice digital camera from my dearest of dears! Let's see if my photo taking efforts will improve!

5. I am still very much in love with my dearest of dears.... more so than ever before! It's a most wonderful feeling and reflection!
