"My son"

We’re celebrating life . . . five years of life for our first born son!

God gives life . . . physical and spiritual. One day we hope and pray that Japheth will be born again . . . and have eternal life! The angels help celebrate that we are told.

“There is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents.” Luke
15:10b

What really matters in life?

“If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself , and take up his cross and follow Me. For whosoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake shall find it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16:24b-26

Like in Proverbs, I long to direct “My son” in matters of life. I desperately long for him to heed my council.

What’s sobering is that in my walk of life I am “telling” him what’s most important to me . . . “O God, that I would show him right!”
