So today is a very special day indeed. It is opening day for baseball, but more importantly it is my 21st birthday. I don't plan on doing anything extremely special except hang out with my awesome friends. Today however I would like to take the time to reflect on my life, your life, everyone's life in the scheme of God. Not that we are worthless for we are truly worthy as Christ is worthy to receive our praise.
It is crazy to think that twenty one years ago today my mom suffered in child labor to give me a chance to praise God the rest of my days. For see I was already alive in my mothers womb. Now I can fulfill the purpose of that life that I was granted. Yesterday, after my post I was reading one of the most inspirational books that is in existence today. That book is the Bible. The specific place in the Bible I was reading was the book of Job. I have been reading it in my quiet times lately and learning that God is big and proud, and loves to boast about His creation as it is His right He did create it. That reminds me of a Shirley Temple commercial I saw. In this commercial she is talking to a lady and says, "My duck is special!" to which the lady replies, "What's so special about your duck?" Temple replies, "My duck can lay an egg, can you lay an egg?" Okay sorry went on a rabbit trail there. However it is true that God created period. In Job, Job is speaking and sharing that wisdom is hidden from everyone who doesn't seek it. He says that people who seek it tend to look in the wrong places. He explains that wisdom can't be measured by riches or jewels. God holds wisdom in His hands and only those who seek it there will find it. That got me to thinking of how small and insignificant my complaints, my accomplishments, my life is to how big and holy and honorable God is.
See its my birthday the day that God chose to let me see the outside of my mothers womb so as to fulfill the purpose He has for my life. It is my special New Year. This year I plan to live for God no matter what the world, Satan, and Satan's demons are allowed to throw at me. Yes, I said allowed. God allows things to happen to us not only to prove that we need to trust Him only, but to bring others to an understanding of who God is and how He loves them. So Happy Birthday to me for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. And Happy Birthday to everyone on there birthday for it truly is happy for God chose you for a reason and that reason is to bring only Him glory.
That's all for today have a wonderful day and I and God love you.
