Happy 31st Lar

September 25, 2008

Well Lar, I used to think that 31 was old, until I began to creep increasingly close to it. A few years and I will be there.

As I usually do on this day each year, I give thanks for you my friend. I wish I could take you to Hoss’s to celebrate, but Lord willing, there will be another time for that. I can hear the song now….“Have a Hoss’s happy birthday….” Yea, I know you are singing it now and tasting that great Hospitality Bar. Didn’t they usually come out with a brownie or something like that rather than cake? Either way, I obviously digress.

Yet we had some great times at Hoss’s didn’t we? Thinking of those times, would we have ever imagined how the Lord has guided our steps over the years? I am thankful He has seen fit to make us sanctifying instruments in one another’s lives. I count it a privilege to walk through life with you brother. And to blog, of course.

My prayer for you is that you would continue to mature in the knowledge of His will, in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you may walk in a manner worthy of Him, fully pleasing to Him, bearing fruit in every good work and word and increasing in the knowledge of His Person. May you be filled with His Spirit, so that you might faithfully reflect the goodness and glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ. He who saved you is faithful. He will surely do it.

Thanks for walking with the Lord, Lar. And leading those under you in the same. I count it a privilege to call you my good friend and brother in the Lord. Happy 31st Birthday. May the Lord bless me by giving you many more!

Seeking Him with you,
Joe
