This morning I woke up and realized I was now joining the 30s crowd! And the second thought that came to mind was”What a privilege to turn 30″! How many people never get to experience their 30s birthday!  How many people would love to live for 10950 days just as I have!

 

Thank You God for another Birthday! 

 

Thank you for giving me life and a purpose to live.

Thank you for giving me 30 years of my life to mess up, make mistakes, fall and get back up.

Thank you for a family that loves and cares for me. No matter how far we are apart.

Thank you for my health! That includes your unending grace, because if it wasn’t for your protection I could be destroyed by sickness right now.

Thank you for second,  third and thousands of chances of unending Grace!  Amazing Grace how sweet the sound.

Thank you for beautiful Jesus Girls and friends in my life. So much joy, truth and laughter.

Thank you for showing me that you love me no matter how broken I am. I cannot comprehend all the ways you love me.

Thank you for breaking my bulimia chains. My life didn’t start until you told me that I am enough.

Thank you for all my nanny babies. They are my every day blessing.

Thank you for the body of Christ and all the different parts of beautiful brokenness. 

Thank you for teaching me honesty, patience (still working on that one) and kindness towards everyone.

Thank you for blessing me with a godly man who protects me, values me, loves me and ALWAYS makes me feel like a princess.  I truly see Jesus in him.

Thank you for nutella, m&msm’s, soy lattes and anything chocolate related. 

Thank you for choosing me out of billions of people to be your child.

Thank you for trusting me to go on the World Race.  I need Holy Spirit anointing big time.

Thank you for loving me more than I ever deserve. 

 

Today on my 30s Birthday Lord there are more than 10950 undeserved blessings I am thankful for. I can’t comprehend and fathom all the ways you are.

All I can say is THANK YOU JESUS for taking all my garbage from the last 30 years, nailing it to the cross and making everything new. That is the most amazing birthday gift I could ever ask for!!!

 

Love Jen
