I turned 29 yesterday. Mandy and Chris took me to lunch at Sol Azteca. I got a million Facebook wall posts. Mom, Bec, Jaime, her parents, and Justin all went to Kobe for dinner. We had a good time. I wish Dad, Katy, and Heath could have come. It was a good day. I am going to hold on to this last year of my 20s for as long as possible.
28 was good to me. I started my vocation of Christian ministry with my jobs at Hunter Street and at Dawson. The Lord really blessed me.
I woke up this morning to the view of my yard that had been rolled overnight. Jeremy and a bunch of 10th grade guys rolled it for my Birthday.
A verse that has come up for the past 2 days in my reading is the verse in Matthew about humbling yourself like a child before Jesus. Humility is something that I struggle with. I’m glad Jesus used the illustration of a child to help paint this picture of humility for me.
