A Birthday Blessing

A New Tradition

Today, as I was driving to Lufkin I was praying asking that the Lord lead me to do something special on my birthday.  As I continued to pray the Lord laid different women who have played a huge impact in my life on my heart to go and bless.

 

Let me just say walking into their offices or homes and surprising them with flowers or a Sonic Drink melted my heart.  It brought me so much joy knowing that these women have been through some pretty big trials and  needed just a sweet bit of encouragment. 

As one of them said, Jenn this is YOUR bday we need to celebrate you-You are not suppose to be giving on your birthday and taking care of others. 

What I am continuing learning is that even though its my birthday I want to show unconditional love and continue to love on others!  I am trying to live for Christ more and more every day. This year has been a hard one on our Family and I am reminded daily that we do not know how many days we have here on earth.  I never want to miss an opportunity to love on someone and make them feel special!

Also, as I face another year of aging I just want to be remembered as someone who Loved, encouraged, and impacted their life towards eternity.  I'm learning this lesson daily!

A Birthday Blessing,

Jenn
