Happy Birthday to the Insurance Man!

60 years ago today, this wonderful man was brought into the world...
We were thinking about his birthday this morning, and I wanted to share what our conclusions were on reaching this milestone in life. First, we felt so entirely grateful that he has reached this point, 60 years of life, here on earth. Second, that he has reached this point with no major accidents or illnesses. He has truly been blessed with the gifts of life and health. God has been so merciful to give to me and our family this man for sixty years.
God hand-made and selected him before he was a 'twinkle' in his mother's eye, to serve and glorify Him all his days, and this is me, his wife, bearing testimony that he has done exactly that. Gratefully we acknowledge that God selected him for salvation, and this man's life has been a testimony to God's goodness and grace. I am and have been so privileged to be a part of his life and his help-mate.
Today we are grateful and thankful for the 60 years we have been given...thank you Lord!
