To my best friend Jesus

Jesus I want to thank you for helping me today and always. Thank you for holding me together. Thank you for giving me hope against all hopelessness. I am so happy so very happy. You have blessed me beyond measure and I see another blessing coming a very big one and my heart is overwhelmed with your goodness. This year you saved my life when I was actually dying. You taught me to open my hands and give you things that were harmful to me. You replaced my broken treasures with rare jewels, people who love you with all their heart and soul. People who give me so much joy that I can't imagine life without them. Thank you! My heart sings every morning. You have given me a job that I absolutely love. I am so happy about my job, thank you! When I think about how you forgive me for all the stupid things I do; and never condemn me for any of them, I am in awe of you. You absolutely love me and I know it all the time, thank you! How you could leave that wonderful place called heaven and come down here and dwell among us in this darkness to save our dusty bodies I will never be able to understand. You are my hope. Thank you for holding me together. You give me joy. You love me no matter what. You gave up your life so that you could save mine. I am in awe of you. Thank you my precious Jesus, thank you!

Happy Birthday Daddy

Today is my daddy's birthday. He's a comical guy. He just moved to a great place but it's way out in the country. There are horses and cows and the biggest bull I ever saw right down the street. I took him shopping last night and he thoroughly enjoyed it because he's a people person. He picked out his groceries, talked to people, humored people, and stayed in the HEB store for over 2 hours. I enjoyed the social experience but I have to say that he stayed in the store "longer than a woman." Thank you Jesus for my daddy. He's a bright spot in my day. Please give him many more birthdays and bless him always. He's such a swell guy and I'm glad to be his daughter.
