Happy Birthday Brad

And yes, he has been known to wear other things on his head... but I try to keep my blog clean so I won't go there....

This is my husband. Brad... I love him with all my heart.. Today is his birthday...

Today, I want to thank God for him...

I want to thank God that He thought enough of me to send Brad to me...

I want to thank God for sending me a man that would love me with an unconditional love

I want to thank God for sending me a man that would love me in sickness and in health and really mean it.

I thank God that when the tough gets tougher, Brad stinks around...

I thank God for a husband that loves me enough that he gave me a son and two daughters but I thank God even more as I watch my husband pour out his love to our children.

I thank Brad that he follows God's calling (most of the time)

I thank God for his financial support and picking up the slack well.... let's say --when I put us in the red....

God... thank you.... for this man....I call my husband.... my beloved journey partner...

Brad, Happy Birthday... I love you

(2 Timothy 4:7) "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the raced, I have kept the faith."

The most amazing thing happened yesterday, Friday February 19th (depending on when you read this, it might not be yesterday). I was at bible study (we are studying Esther by Beth Moore, It's tough being a woman- now that is a big Amen in itself!!) and I asked for prayer. See, my father-in-law has been very sick for sometime. What I asked for was a peaceful death. Sounds weird that I didn't ask for healing, huh? Most people do, but I have learned on my own journey the past few years, we are here for but a brief time, a season (Ecc 3:2). So when our time comes, why not receive death as really life, eternal life?



Anyway, we prayed. It was a sweet prayer.



As I left Bible study, I received a phone call. The phone call we had been waiting on for weeks. My father-in-law has passed very peacefully. "You wouldn't believe it, It was so peaceful, it was beautiful", my mother-in-law said through tears. Oh yes, I would believe it. I would. God is just like that.



John Johnson is Home.



He told my husband the other day that he would see him soon, "On the other side".. he would be waiting.


Angel Pops is in the arms of our Jesus,,, I hope he meets up with my dad and tells him how good I've been... ok... so they don't lie in Heaven..
