My Birthday




22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some. 23 I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.
1 Corinthians 9:22-24
 
      I have had a wonderful birthday and it began over the weekend. Friday, I was planning on going to Cloudland Cannon, but it got rained out.  Instead, I got to sit down for a long time with Tina Kleiber and Rita Holcomb.  Saturday was the fourth.  I celebrated with some of my favorite people, the Holder family and one of Jeff Paul's co-workers.  Sunday, I was able to attend a wonderful service at my home church.  I have not been able to go that often due to speaking engagement.  (Which I am more than a little thankful for.  God is doing amazing things.)  After church, I finally made it to Cloudland cannon.  I loved it, but it about killed me.  When we got almost to the top, I had to lay down for a few minutes.  I just didn't have anything left, but I love that. That is when God really gets to show His stuff and He came through for me
by getting me up that ravine. 
     Today has been all about the family.  I worked with people that I truly enjoy being around.  I is such a gift from God to be able to enjoy a variety of people and work closely with them.  Then I had lunch with my sister (Mylinda), my nephew (Hudson), my brother-in-law (Jimmy), dad, mom, and my Aunt Teena.  It was great.  Then my mom went to go see Faith of our Fathers.  I don't really care for any war movies, but I loved the message.
