Yes! Let the celebrations continue. It's my Birthday Month! I'm celebrating all month, yes, every single day!
Thank you everyone for the wonderful birthday wishes, cards, calls, and gifts. I enjoyed reading every single one of them.
You all made my heart smile. I appreciate your kind words and encouragement. They blessed and encouraged me.
"A word fitly spoken and in due season is like apples of gold in settings of silver." (Proverbs 25:11 AMPC)
Sometimes you just don't know if what you do matters. Is anyone's life impacted? I have been shown what I mean to people, that what I do matters. Truth is, I have to do it because it's what God called me to do, even if I never know the impact. How special of God to allow others to speak words of encouragement and blessings into my life on my birthday!
God is in the details of our lives. He knows just what we need, right when we need it, and exactly how to get it to us! What a love!
My actual birthday, yesterday, was fantastic. My husband and I went to Pappadeaux to celebrate. I ate more than I should have! Can we say hot bread right out of the oven with butter just melting into it? While I had a Greek salad I also had Michael's fries with honey mustard dipping sauce. Michael had fried shrimp! It was just nice to celebrate with the two of us.
While I ate more than usual, bread and fries are not my norm, I'm reminded that it's not what we do once in a while but what we do consistently that makes the difference in our health. I did not have the free birthday dessert as I don't eat sugar!
Everything is about balance. I did come home and walk on my treadmill and gazelle. I also attended my water aerobics class at 6pm! I hit 21K steps so I earned that bread and fries and worked them off! Lol!
Thank you all again for showing me love and kindness on my birthday and throughout the month of celebration. I pray God blesses you all!
THE BLESSING:
"The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually)." (Numbers 6:24-26 AMPC)
Be Encouraged! ❤
