“Birthday To Remember”
 
What did you do for your birthday?  Did it glorify God or you?  I have two very special young ladies that I know that used their birthday to do just that.  They may just see it as being another day in their life as a child of God only wanting to serve Him but they are very special in His eyes.  One of these young ladies is old enough to hit the clubs and go party.  She made no big deal out of her birthday she sat up all night on her computer making sure that if something happened in the ministry she loves that there was a backup plan in place.  Sounds like to me that God was the one that got the present.  She could have spent that time hanging out with friends or going to the mall or a movie or for that matter the local pub.  But no, she spent it at home doing stuff for her Daddy God.  Now that my friends is something to be proud of.  My other little angel is in a different country on her birthday doing a walk to raise money for starving people.  I had not even heard of this until I was told what she was doing.  Walking across Canada to help raise money for the people of Canada that are poor, homeless, widowed, and orphaned.  Once again sounds like to me that God got the presents.  People like these young ladies rarely receive any thanks or any press for that matter and I wanted to take this moment to tell them thanks for being who you are in Christ.  I wanted my two little angel daughters in Christ to know that their daddy in Christ is soooooo proud of them and how they choose to serve God over the fleshly things of this world.  Their blessings are not of this world but they are earning eternal treasures in heaven that can never be taken away from them.  These two young ladies are the heroes that I want my children to look up to and to learn from.  I thank God for their mighty presence in my life and I pray they will continue in the Good fight sharing the Truth about Jesus Christ to the world.  There are two places in scripture that I want you to PRaP and the Bible is full of passages but I want these two in particular to ring out into your hearts.
 
Salt and Light
 Matthew 5  13"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
 14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
 
Treasures in Heaven
 Matthew 6 19"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
 22"The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. 23But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
 24"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
