Reflection
Thirty-five years ago, on this day, I was still thawing out from my “long weekend.”
I was five months sober and fighting through a brain fog and mood swings due to the aftereffects of my five-year battle with drug addiction.
Thirty-five years ago, on this day, God saw fit to help pull me out of my fog by blessing us with our third child, Michelle Marie.
He double-blessed us because Lori’s (my wife) birthday is also on January 15.
I am so grateful for being sober on that day and the days since.
The blessings keep on rolling.
Fact
Blessings are always right in front of us…it’s impossible to see them if our head is down, our brain is numb, our eyes are closed, and our heart is hard…been there, done that, and don’t ever want to go back.
Today, Lori, Jordan, and I will celebrate Lori’s birthday at Paycor Stadium, watching our mighty Bengals take on the Baltimore Ravens in the first round of the NFL playoffs.
Ephesians 1:3, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,”
Who Dey!
