From the Day I Was Born...

...the Lord has abundantly blessed me!


The day after Christmas my sister and I were going through some old files and came across this newspaper clipping that Mom had saved many years ago. Even though I wasn't born till January 2nd, I was still the first baby of the year at McPherson Hospital, entitling Mom and Dad to $250 (quite a sum in those days!) in prizes from the local merchants. From baby shoes, to flowers for Mom, to a service job for Dad's car.

I didn't plan when I would be born but He did. He knew the times and the seasons, the people he would put in my life, exactly what I would need for today. I thank you, my friends, who are reading this today for being a part of my life. For helping me grow, to reach towards the Father, to know His love. Don't be sad or ever think your life is wasted. If he only used you to touch me, that would be enough.

This is the best time to be alive! God is at work TODAY! He is changing hearts and setting captives free, restoring relationships, bringing light to the darkness, healing hurts and wounds from the past.

He has done it for me and He WILL do it for you! I love being a part of His work!

Till the day I die,
Pauline
