I love celebrating other people's birthday but I feel awkward celebrating my own.

Being 30 this year is quite a milestone on its own. Many people around the globe do not make it to 30 so I'm thankful and grateful that God has brought me thus far.

The past 30 years had many ups and downs but in each and every season I can say my God was with me. He pulled me out of the deep mire. He lead me through the wildernesses. From the pit to the peak on the mountain top, He was there.

I've fallen many times. Lost direction. Lost hope. Hurt many along the way even as I walk this journey of life but God my God never left me once. Adding to my life more than I truly deserve.

As if that was not enough, this 30th birthday celebration left me awestruck with His love. For the family and friends that He place in my life that despite my failings have been there and accepted me as I am.

While without the messages, presents, the special touch in so many ways and celebration I would still praise God, it has nevertheless been so amazing to be celebrated more than I could ever ask for or expected.

My God my God
Thou that that loves me true and true
What can I give to You in gratitude
Oh may the praise from my lips bring cheer to You
Oh may this weak and frail body bring glory to You
Oh may this life I live be unto You a life well live for the glory of Your Name!
