Today, the 13th of February, I pause… not to count years, but to count mercies.
There are battles I didn’t see.
There are dangers I’ll never know about.
There are doors God closed that felt painful then but saved me later.
There are prayers He answered quietly, without noise, without applause, yet they changed everything.
Through thick and thin.
Through uncertainties.
Through moments of pressure, responsibility, leadership, expectations … I stood unscathed.
Not because I was the strongest.
Not because I was the smartest.
Not because I had it all figured out.
But because God kept me.
He kept my mind.
He kept my health.
He kept my family.
He kept my vision.
He kept my name.
Far from sickness.
Far from disgrace.
Far from lack.
The version of me standing today is stronger, wiser, calmer, deeper.
More refined by fire.
More grounded in purpose.
More aware that without Him, I am nothing.
There were seasons I thought I wouldn’t survive.
There were responsibilities that felt heavier than my shoulders could carry.
But somehow, grace showed up.
Provision showed up.
Help showed up.
Peace showed up.
God showed up.
And even the things He did that I did not see.
The protection I didn’t notice.
The battles He fought in silence.
The plans He rearranged in my favor.
For those unseen miracles, I am overwhelmed with gratitude.
Today, I don’t just celebrate age.
I celebrate growth.
I celebrate resilience.
I celebrate becoming.
I celebrate the Spirit of God in me that refused to give up.
If I had ten thousand tongues, it still wouldn’t be enough.
If I wrote a book of gratitude, it still wouldn’t capture it all.
But from the depth of my heart:
Thank You, Lord.
For keeping me.
For shaping me.
For strengthening me.
For staying with me.
This new year of my life will not just be bigger, it will be better.
Not just louder, but deeper.
Not just successful, but meaningful.
I am super grateful. Truly, deeply, overwhelmingly grateful.
Happy Birthday to me.
God did this.!!
