How Blessed I Am

5/30/2016

 
​I am amazed at how blessed I am. I have a terrific family. Especially my wife Lisa, who spent three weeks planning one of the best birthdays I have ever had. I really had no idea that anything was going on. How she kept it quiet for that long baffles me. She enlisted the help of my wonderful son Craig, and my lovely mother-in-law, and her best friends Rhonda and Mike Sample. They pulled off one of the best surprises ever! (Maybe I am getting older and not paying attention as much?) I can’t thank them enough for all the work that they did behind the scenes to get it perfect. She contacted each one of the churches and got them to invite people without me suspecting a thing. Each church passed the word along and everything came together without a hitch. I thank God for putting such special people in my life.

I was also honored by several members of my Faith Family that took time out of their busy schedules to come to my birthday party. It is through our Faith Family, that we care for one another and treat each other as family members (the Body of Christ).

I don’t know if anyone else saw it, but the love that I felt was overwhelming. I lost count at 87 guests, and I’m sure there were many more than that.

My actual birthday was Monday, and I had meetings all day, so I thought that it would be a quiet birthday….WOW….was I wrong!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU !! I don’t deserve you and your love, but boy, do I like it. You are all special and truly a blessing to me. May God bless each and every one of you.

God’s blessings, 
Rev. Steve
