We added another candle to my birthday cake yesterday - 74 of them! My cake looked like it broke out into a prairie fire! I have been greatly blessed by so many who remembered my birthday yesterday with a card or gift or phone call or even a Facebook post! The church that I've been serving off and on this summer wished me a happy birthday with singing and cards. What a nice surprise! This outpouring of respect and affection reminded me of something I'd written down in my journal: Have a blessed day!
I walk through life together with others, and those others are people whom Christ has placed in my life. They are His gifts.Bruce Hartung, "Holding Up the Prophet's Hand," page 154
