In eleven more days my next birthday will come.
I am hopeful to be alive to celebrate the day with my family.
The Lord has graciously and freely given me these sixty-one years of life.
I do trust He will allow me to see this one that is soon about to arrive.
Receiving any gifts will be an extra blessing from the ones who wish to offer them.
I will be most happy with the added year of my life and trust the Lord for more as He sees fit to bless me with more.
I am excited and awestruck in knowing I will be sixty-two years of age.
Never had I ever thought I would get this far; in my life but Jesus has done the blessing.
Praise the Lord and may I ever be happy and grateful for every year He allows me to have.
