I'm back in NY again, celebrating yet another birthday, hanging out with an old friend in NYC for a day, and then crashing for a week with my folks. I got to setup the rat's-nest-of-wires that is my parents' stereo system... lots of fun. I missed getting a free ticket, $200 and a paid-for hotel stay on my flight up, but I guess I can live without it.
It's amazing how just hearing a line from a song can bring a million things to mind... especially when it's "love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your strength."
Birthdays are one of those occasions that make you reflect over the past year, and past years. God, give me an eye that sees through the disappointments and frustrations of the present to see the gracious preventative purpose. Give me an eye that sees beyond present good times and blessings to see His preparation for future responsibility.
