Theme: Celebrate You


Today’s your birthday!


It’s more than the day you were born…


It’s more than another day…


It's more than another year…


It’s Proof that God has Blessed You again and again 🙌🏾💖


Many years ago, my prayer was “Lord, My Brother is important to me. It’s just the two of us and I need him in my life for more years to come. Please restore his health and the man I Love and Respect… My Hero… My Big Brother… My Friend…”


FYI, the prayer was much longer, more detailed, more of a Little Sister’s Heart petitioning Our Father, God, to do what His Word says He Can Do…


“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”- Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV)


AND GOD ANSWERED MY PRAYERS!!! 🙌🏾💖


God provided what I prayed for and more!! 🙌🏾💖


My Big Brother is a Living Testimony!! 🙌🏾💖


He’s not perfect but he is Respectable, Responsible, and Most Importantly…


He is My Big Brother 🙌🏾💖


He is An Answered Prayer!! 🙌🏾💖


And today, I celebrate both the gift and the Giver.


When I asked him what he would like to do for his birthday, he said “You know how I am, as long as we celebrate your birthday, I’m good.”


That means “Spontaneous Fun”!!


We may not have a plan and that’s okay because:


“This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.”- Psalm 118:24 (NIV)


I hope everyone celebrates themselves and others


Each and every day.


You never know how important you are to others…


To some, you may be a Visible Blessing, an Audible Blessing, or an Unexpected Blessing.


Mr. Harold Graddy, Happy Birthday Big Bro!!


From my heart to yours,

Dianne Lawson 💞
