TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY AND I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR ANYTHING! ALL THE GLORY GOES TO ALMIGHTY GOD WHO IS THE LIGHT OF MY LIFE. I CANNOT TALK WITHOUT HIM OPENING MY MOUTH. I CANNOT LIFT A LIMB UNLESS HE LIFTS IT FOR ME. MY MIND CANNOT FUNCTION NORMALLY UNLESS HE REGULATES IT. I AM TOTALLY DEPENDENT UPON HIM FOR 'EVERYTHING'. NEEDLESS TO SAY, HE HAS DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB ALL THESE YEARS. AND, IF IT BE HIS WILL, HE WILL GO ON 'KEEPING' ME. TO THE STRENGTH OF MY LIFE, MY ALL AND ALL, MY SUSTAINER AND MY EVER PRESENT HELP...I SAY THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO EXPERIENCE 71 YEARS OF 'YOU', IN SPITE OF ME! MANY HAVE COME AND MANY HAVE LEFT BUT YOU DEAR GOD HAVE PROVED YOU'RE THE BEST. I LOVE YOU AND ONLY BECAUSE OF YOUR PRICELESS MERCY AND GRACE I KNOW THAT, AS IMPERFECT AS I AM, I AM...STILL YOUR CHILD!

Happy Birthday to me... 71 Years and still...A Child of the King!!! Excuse me while I lift my voice and to my Savior...Sing! A Mighty God!!! that's what I see Who, through another year has strengthened and mended me Of course, there has been many ups and downs for sure but infused with...His Power I've persevered and endured His Strong Hands...kept me... when I sometimes lost my way His Faithful Voice of assurance encouraged and steadied...my sway 71 years...my, my...! can you even imagine?!!?? I tell you, it was only His Patient Love that delivered... thru the storms and gin So, Whatever may happen my Praise and Glory...to Him I'll give For...I know...I would not be here yet because of...His Will Alone... I live! Now....what do my tomorrows hold... or what will my future bring? I've no idea, but...With God, I'll make it! For, I'm Still...A Child of the King!

Happy Birthday Joyce! I mean Happy Birthday - celebrate the whole year long! You have JESUS and you can say it out loud or sing it in a song! You have the Holy Spirit to help you along. You were blessed with a long life because He has a purpose for you and also me too!
By the reading of your reviews I can see and feel that you have touched so many lives because as we know, "Jesus Lives" and if they listen they will be saved too. We plant the seeds and let them grow. We may help the toughest ones on earth for all we know.
Love and Blessings! John Domino

Unless you become like little children, you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. This, La Belle Rouge, as "child of the king", you have set forth these noble sentiments and inspired us all "to become as little children." Thank you. John

An impressive write Joyce. The scorn of people is often what brings us to dependence on the one who not only knows but accepts us and loves unconditionally. Happy birthday Beautiful Lady. You are forever young.

I give credit to your brilliant mother and father, who, in a moment of passion, conceived and gave birth to a great writer who never walked the paths of others, but carved her own.
