FEAR OF BIRTHDAYS!………..WHO WANTS TO GET OLD?

I do have a special fear. ‘Fear of my birthdays’,  because they remind that I am getting older though “gracefully” but at the same time I love my birthdays because I have lots of fun celebrating with family, friends and well wishers-and the amount of junks I get to eat on that day.

I do not think about my “true” age (well, I have a “false” age-the one I tell myself) except when I have to fill forms its annoying- but who wants to get old?. One day,Trinity-my daughter asked me “mummy, how old are you” and I told her “twenties” and she asked “mummy, what is twenties? and I  said “twenties is that number that is so complicated” and she said “copli…..I don’t understand?” and then I said “someday, you will understand, okay”, and she said “okay” and I gave her that happy face smile.

As I get older, I see things differently and I become mature in the things of life and also playful- let things go!. At the same time, I see God differently, though uniquely and his love for me has never changed all the beautiful things he has given to me freely even when I don’t ask- he is really amazing!. And so I will always love him-“you shall love the lord your God with your whole heart, with your whole soul and with your whole might (Deuteronomy 6:5), I will be his servant, serve him continuously on the basis of love, all the days of my life.

“According as he hath chosen us in him, before the foundation of the world, and we should be holy and without blame in before him in love”(Ephesians 1:4).

Loving God and being thankful for every little gift.
