Hello Church,
On today, my 48th birthday, I have come to realize a rather fascinating fact: I have spent more of my life with Kim than without her. I would love to take a bunch of credit for this. As marriage records go, it is no longer assumed that you'd spend so much time with one person. Indeed, it is now a rather impressive feat. I could make a list of all the things I've had to endure over the years, not the least is helping to raise 5 kids and a handful of pets. However, I've learned not to make such lists. Why? Because I have been with Kim over 2 decades now. I know better.
Truth is, her list would likely be longer. Yet at the end of the day is a long list of blessings. My first birthday present was from my granddaughter. It is a T-shirt that, on the surface, looks messy, sloppy and not something I would wear in public. But I think it is a perfect gift for spending half of my life in semi-chaotic existence with lots of messes throughout the wonderful years with Kim.
Appreciate who you have in your life. Thank God for love.
I am going to go wear this T-shirt in public. My granddaughter is going to take me to lunch. But she says I have to do the driving...... and the paying....
God is Good,
Pastor Joe
