| Happy October! |
October Newsletter My birthday is in October, and I love birthdays. “Why,” you may ask? It is because for me it is a time to remember just how grateful to God I am for all that He has done for me over the past year. Please indulge me as I share a few of them with you. As I look back over the past year, I am grateful for all that God has taught me. I am grateful for all He has taught you, too, through personal devotions, Bible studies, times of fellowship, and prayer. I am grateful for the ways God has blessed my family and brought us through health issues this past year, and I am grateful for the ways God has done that for you and for those around us, too. I have known the joys of riding an electric bike, which was great fun, and seeing beautiful sunsets, and the beauty of creation like these:   I have felt so blessed to walk with some of you who have experienced God’s grace in your lives this year, and have been blessed by the times when God has touched mine. I am grateful for being able to worship with you each week and to hear the ways God has been faithful in your lives and in the lives of others for whom we have prayed. And sometimes, I am just enormously grateful for the gift of a hairbrush to use, clothes from which to choose, and for more than one pair of shoes that I can choose from to put on my feet. I give thanks to God for it all. I know I deserve nothing, but because of His goodness, I feel truly blessed. Two of my happiest blessings lately have come in the form of cheery flowers. I count them as signs of God’s unfailing and fulfilling love. For every blessing, I give thanks.   It doesn’t have to be your birthday for it to be a wonderful time to reflect on your life with God and celebrate God’s goodness towards you. I hope you will accept this as a personal invitation to celebrate God’s blessings in your lives today. My prayer is that it will lift your spirit, strengthen your faith, increase your love for God, and remind you that your love expressed in the lives of others can make a world of difference. Proverbs 17:2 –“ A cheerful heart is good medicine….” 1 Thessalonians 5:18 –“ Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” Have a very cheerful October in Jesus’ name!
