On retreat on the coast of Maine, and enjoyed finding your pages online, Tim…. it is April 21st, and amazing that my memory reminds it is your birthday…. 70 years, a new decade for you…. Psalm 90 comes to mind for perspective — “a thousand years in Your sight is like a day just gone by”. wow…. and yes.
Blessings on your retirement journey and the many interests that keep you clinging to our Lord, creatively giving back to Him the many gifts and skills He designed just for you.
Praising Him, with awe and gratitude, and with you and yours….
