Pressing On ~

When you are told

 at the age of 22

 that you have a life expectancy

 of 20 years
you can't help but

 be more than a little thankful

 to be celebrating a birthday
with your loved ones
some 46 years later

and the best part

awaiting the birth of

your son's son

sometime later

 this month

Life is gift ... God is love.

*  *  *

I press toward the mark

 for the prize of the high calling

 of God in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 3:14
