Birthday Party for 3

Charles Wesley, Keith Richards…and my dad.

Today’s the birthday of all three.

What a weird trilogy. Or trinity, with a lower case “t.” Or something.

Three major Influencers…for a lotta different reasons.

My dad died when he was 48.

Way too young.

For a long time I said I just wanted to outlive him. You know, like make it to 50.

“The older you get, the older you want to get.” Mr. Richards said that. I’m finding that to be true.

And let’s pick up right there tomorrow.

Because today I want to remember and celebrate my dad. He taught me a lot, and gave me even more.

Philippians 1:3 says, I’m grateful every time I think of you.

I hope and pray you have at least one person like that in your life.

If possible make the effort to thank them today.

Trust me: you’ll both be glad you did.
