Birthday Reflections
“...He is your life and the length of your days..." - Deut. 30:20
For 43 years, I’ve breathed Your air, been refreshed by Your gracious gifts of food and water, and always had a place to lay my head at night.
What
shall my response be to these treasures? Surely
not grand promises, for You know my shortcomings. Let me
simply live - in this moment and the moments to come - the
words of Moses and Micah:
That you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days... (Deuteronomy 30:20)
He has
shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)
