| Jasa Girl |
Happy 50th Birthday to me! I turned
fifty this month and my girlfriend, Jasa, had such a beautiful, dreamy, girl party for me. It was totally me! All creamy, yummy, girly, and beautiful. There was amazing food, hand crafted cake (thanks Jeremiah) special drinks (all my favorites), gorgeous flowers, lights, etc. So touched by all the friends who helped her pull off such a beautiful evening.

My Aunt RuthAnn, from Arkansas, surprised me and was at my party which was was totally awesome.
And one of my spiritual mentors/friends, Patrica came as well as my girlfriend, Jewell (flew in from California) along with many other treasured friends. It was such a sweet celebration.

| Jewell all the way from Cali |
My prayer partner (of 15 years) Jewell, flew out for the weekend from California and she took me shopping and totally spoiled me. We had a lovely family BBQ on my birthday and of course my husband spoiled me with gifts and dozens and dozens of roses. I also shared a few other birthday celebrations with other friends and loved ones over the days before/after. I felt totally spoiled. I have so many more pictures with precious friends I would love to share, but not enough space - so if I snapped a photo with you, know you are loved and cherished even if your face is not on this post.

The Bible talks about the year of Jubilee being the year where all debts are canceled, restitution is made and its the year of release. I love it! So, a couple other friends of mine (Jubilee Girls Mari & Andrea) turn fifty this spring and we are claiming this our year of Jubilee. Yipee!!

The Jubilee year contains many of the pictures of our
salvation. Just as the land, the people,
and all the property was released, so we too have been released from a debt
that we could not pay (our sins). We
were once slaves to sin but now we’ve been released, once held captive but now
set free. Christ’s blood has atoned for
our sins and satisfied the wrath of God that was due us (Rom 5) and as the land
was given rest, we too have entered into His rest from all of our works for we
could never save ourselves by our own works because salvation is fully a work
of God. If you are not saved, then maybe
you have asked what some had asked Jesus “What must we do, to be doing the
works of God?” Jesus answered them,
“This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent” (John
6:28-29). ~ Jack Wellman
