I don’t normally make a big deal about this particular day of the year. I prefer to dwell on January 9, the day I became a believer in Jesus as my Savior.
What is special of this day?
Well, on October 26, 1983, I was born.
As I turn two score years old, it occurred to me that this year I will have spent two and half times longer as a Christian than not as a Christian. I was 16 years in the spiritual wilderness when I first bent my knee and confessed Jesus as Lord. This coming year, I celebrate 24 years walking as a disciple of Jesus in the Promise.
I may have completed 40 revolutions about our Sun, but I await eternity wrapped in the love of The Son.
And I am thankful for our God’s love and grace, for all the gifts He has given, especially for eternal life. (And a loving, God-fearing wife who helps me grow and stay on the straight-and-narrow. And I await greeting my mother once more in His presence.)
yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will take joy in the God of my salvation.

Proverbs 13:20, ESV
We think we know what’s best, but God has given His Word to guide us. We still struggle, so God came to us to shine His light on us and offer His life for our forgiveness.
Walk in the Light, not in the darkness of our fellow men and women of this world.
You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.
Psalm 119:114, ESV
With everyone doing “what is right in their own eyes,” this world gets crazy and dangerous, but we can find peace and comfort from God in His Word.
He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8, ESV
Too many start with their own will, and this is not good.
We are to seek the Lord’s justice, Love in His kindness, and know these by honestly seeking His will and living by it.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.
