Celebrating my birthday today by doing the usual…tending to animals, perhaps going to town to post packages, relishing in the beauty God has urrounded me with and pondering the many, many blessings He has given me.
I’ve learned a bit and am still working on a few but the most important are these:
*God forgives sin. There is no sin so grievous, God will not forgive. Take Jesus into your heart and claim Heaven for eternity. (It really is that easy.)
*The hardest words I’ve ever uttered, time and again, “God gives and He takes back. Blessed be His name.”
*Forgiveness can takes years but is so worth it!.
*Never, Never, NEVER stop praying for others and yourself.
*Don’t chase people whom God has removed from your life.
*Everyday read God’s love letter. Five chapters of Psalms and one chapter of Proverbs takes you through the month. Then, start over.
*Live forward.
*You’re either a care taker or steward. Choose wisely.
*God can handle the questions. Can you accept His answers?
*Jesus loves us, this I know for the Bible tells me so.

God Bless YOU for this list.
Caretaker or Steward………HUGE….

How did you know…………someone God took from my life……………first time to KNOW it was God’s protection. Better, they did it. Didn’t see it coming. Don’t understand. But I TRUST.
Such love God gives us……….how not to believe in God when we lose loved ones?
