Thanks, everyone for the birthday wishes via FB, FB messenger, regular text, and WhatsApp. I am not one that is big on celebrating my birthdays. But since it was my 60th, the one thing I did was take the day off to relax. I did some reading, watched TV, and played a PC game. No not Civ 6 or Xcom2 but something different - Age of Empires 4. Rather educational cut scenes too 😁 No special meals as my wife had to work. But on Monday she made me a huge cheesecake and a large tray of lasagna. 😋 And I ate that for three meals 🤣 Monday night's dinner, and yesterday for lunch and dinner. No complaint. was good. My plan was to attend a magic lecture last night BUT, plans for derailed due to helping sort out my wife's car. The lecture was part of my personal birthday plans 🙁BUT all good, wife comes first! I told my family NOT to buy me anything as I think can end up being a waste of money if it ends up being something I don't really want or need. Instead, I decided to buy myself
:):) a friend and former mentor at cornell just wrote me yesterday, telling me that she's praying that god will grant me the desires of my heart. well, my first response when i read that was "oh, i just spent most of sunday worship time praying that God will give me the desires of his heart!"
ReplyDeleteIt takes courage to be wholly human before God, even if that is what he created us to be. :)
What would be ideal is when the desires of our heart are the same as the desire of God's heart for us. *sigh* can this ever be achieved in this plane of existence?
