The Blessing of a Birthday



Thank you, Lord, for the gift of another year. Thank you for my friends, family, work, ministry, children, Dr. M, Sr. S, and dear pets. Thank you for sending the Holy Spirit, my good buddy, always right on time. Thank you for challenges and hope and keeping me going. Thank you for using broken vessels. Bless those who suffer and are sad or lonely or scared or hungry or lost. Give us, me in particular, grace to know you in the faces of strangers and in the breaking of the bread. Help us, me in particular, to be Christ for those I meet. I pray all this in Jesus' name. Amen.
