Well Happy Birthday you old geezer you. You do not deserve to have it so good but since God is so good to you, you can't help but have a good day no matter what might come your way. I bet you couldn't even name all of the ways God has blessed you. But try to anyway, it will change your attitude and life.
September 3, 1995 ... the day you met Jesus..! Wow... that was many years ago now, what..?..16 years?!?! I know, you wouldn't trade them for anything but still, there were some days since then that you would rather 'do over'. Who hasn't wanted to do that! But knowing that you are in Christ Dave, 1John 1:9 tells you to confess and He will forgive and your relationship can again grow and Glow! Thank God for that..!
I know that you are not all what God wants you to be... so He's a still working on you, as the saying goes. (Just quit making it SO hard for Him to change you)
Thank you Jesus for saving a sinner as Dave. He loves you with all of his heart, all of his soul and all of his mind. Because of YOU Lord, he can thrive in this world and in the one to come! Help him to tell others of your amazing love and of your desire for us to know you as Savior and Lord.
Happy Birthday Dave... you've already received the best gift ever...JESUS CHRIST..!
