In two days I turn twenty-eight.
Part of me wants to say something profound to mark the occasion. But honestly, I haven’t thought too much about it. I’m looking forward to it and I feel at peace about turning another year older – more so than last year. God has been renewing hope in me.
The main thing is feeling grateful and privileged to have known God as I have during my life. I know Him more today than I did last year, but still there is the knowledge that He has always been part of my life. I remember calling upon Jesus as a friend when I was a kid, because friendships always held difficulty for me in some way or another. The fact that God has always been there with me and for me is incredible.
He is the only one who knows everything about us, and who truly understands it all. He created and knew every single person before He spoke the world into being. He holds everything in His hands, and cares about all of it. How thankful I am, even as it astounds me.
This is a short post, simply to say that I am grateful to the Lord for sustaining me, and for loving me. Just as He loves all of us, unconditionally. There is no evil in Him, and He has good plans for His children. May my life be honouring unto Him.
