Last night we joined several couples at a campfire at Ron & Ruth's home. It was a gorgeous night for a campfire – slight breeze and a beautiful full moon. It was a wonderful example of just why we love this life. In what other world could about 20 people who didn't know each other 2 months ago sit for hours and share stories and laugh and talk like they've known each other for years? Not many places, I think.
I am so grateful to God for allowing us to experience retirement at such a young age. It is truly a gift to be able to enjoy life 24/7 with your best friend who just happens to be your spouse. And it's so much fun to find other couples who feel the same way.
Speaking of gifts, tomorrow is Easter. The greatest gift of all was given to us during this season when Jesus sacrificed his perfect life for us so that we may be able to live with Him in heaven for eternity. What joy to know Him in this way. If you don't know Jesus in this way, I encourage to you seek Him and learn about Him - ask me, I'll be glad to share my story with you. If you do know Him, then you'll be joining me in rejoicing over our celebration of Resurrection Sunday.
Until the next time . . .
