It’s My Birthday

7865Today is 26th of December in Aussie Land and it’s my Birthday, being Born on Boxing day or I should say Night, I was born at Midnight, they say that means the Moon is under my feet? does have some advantages but also disadvantages. Not many because of the preparations for Christmas remember my Birthday.

In Aussie Land Boxing Day is a Public Holiday although some do work but when I was younger I never had to go to work on my Birthday… How good is That!

I had my first real Birthday Cake when I was 30 before this as a Child it was a half eaten Christmas Cake with a candles stuck in it but I did have a Surprise Birthday Party that Ron organized when I was 50, with a beautiful Cake, balloons, streamers and all the other trimmings and best of all nearly everyone of my friends at that time came, it was wonderful, I felt very Special.

I have invited some friends as well as family to share my Birthday and the Special Cake, I’m looking forward to a relaxing afternoon with them and than a quiet night Blogging, sounds good, I think so.

One thing I have kept in my heart for many years is that even if no one remembers my Birthday, God does, He saw me being formed in my Mother’s womb and knows every hair on my head and even Sings over me, I’m precious to Him and always will be, His Plans for me are very good and not just for me but for all of you whom He also Loves greatly .

For all those who are having a Birthday today too…….

    • Thank you Shattered in Him for your Birthday wishes and for your other encouragement on my Blog, it has been really good sharing with you again. But I’m sorry that it took me so long to visit you and share on your Posts.

      I’m very behind with my Blogging because of Accidents, health and personal problems and also with Monty our furry friend dieing and Mo-Joe being Attacked by another dog. Like 2015, last year was a very hard one for me but God helped me to walk out of the Storm and not to not give up and I have no doubt He will continue to do so this year too and every year until Jesus returns and we know He will do the same for you too and all His Redeemed Children..

      Blessings – Anne.

        A lot of us are way behind (like me!). The holidays, word press running slow, other obligations…I totally get it! 😀

        Sometimes, our storms are a season of refinement so that we will be prepared for His glory to be revealed! Hang on tight!! He’s got you.

        • Yes Shattered in Him, Christmas is a busy time with lots of preparation but I love it and enjoy preparing to make it Special, although this year there were problems too as you know.

          In response to God’s refining, as we see confirmed below in Scripture, He doesn’t willingly afflict us or cause us to grieve, this is not the way He molds, shapes or refines us, it is by giving us opportunities to Choose to walk in The Fruit of the Spirit with His empowering.

          Lamentations 3: 33 For God doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the Children of Men.

          God’s ways are always Loving and uplifting for us His Redeemed Children, He does not use hardship or suffering but we do reap the evil we sow and this is His discipline but it’s our choice to disobey, also Satan and Life brings problems and so do those who walk in the flesh, they can hurt us and when we follow Jesus even some of our own family members or people who claim to be Christians may reject us. Jesus also said some of us will be Persecuted and Martyred because we follow Him, I know I have experienced these, No! not being Martyred of course but Hate and Persecution, even with Blogging but I remember as we see below that God is with us and what Satan means for evil, He will use it for good.

          Isaiah 43:1-3 – Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you I have called you by name you are mine. When you go through deep waters and great trouble I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression you will not be burned up the flames will not consume you. For I Am The LORD, your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Saviour.”

          Jeremiah 29 :11-12 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you says the LORD, thoughts of Peace and not of evil, to give you a Future and a Hope.

          Christian Love Always – Anne.
