Boy 2010 went by fast. It seemed like a big blur until I started to review highlights from my journal and post photos for the entire year at Flickr. Then I was able to appreciate how rich the year really was. Our family is SO BLESSED. And we are grateful for EVERY good gift that comes from above, from the Father of lights. This year, with our combined email lists, we are sending our special greeting to more than 2,000 people. We consider our family Christmas card one of the best gifts we can give to you because it’s the gift of ourselves, sharing our lives with you.

Thank You for the good start to my day today. Thank You for the opportunity to listen to my scheduled iTunes playlist for Day #17. As Dennis Jernigan sings, I do stand amazed in all of Your glory. Thank You for ears to hear and eyes to see. Thank You for a heart to obey. The perfect woman, according to the Bible, is a hard worker. This woman creates, manages, and provides. Every woman works. But some are more appreciated for what they do than others.

Good morning, My child! Thank you for greeting Me first thing and for wishing Me a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I appreciate it. I AM HAVING THE BIGGEST BIRTHDAY PARTY IN THE WORLD! I AM VISITING MY PEOPLE TODAY AND THEY WILL BE AWARE OF MY PRESENCE. I AM DRAWING PEOPLE TO MYELF. I AM MOVING IN THE ATMOSPHERE AND PEOPLE WILL NOTICE SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND UNUSUAL.

Jesus, will you tell me what You mean when You say “Serve your wife”? Sure, Randy. It really boils down to treating Julia as if she were Me. You see, when you sense a nudge from Me, you do it right away in general. Consider Julia’s requests as nudges from Me. As you learn to serve Julia, you will become a better servant of others.
