Everything is by grace. Today is a good day to count my blessings. I am not in dialysis. My kidney function has stabilized (the last three years). It is not good but it is livable. My wife loves me. And my two sisters and my brother-in-law (and a friend) sent me birthday cards (and one check). There is so much to be grateful of–two well running cars and a roof over my shoulders. There is no pressing financial needs. And I am surrounded by animals I love (in fact, there are eleven in this house). I love watching the birds out my window. And now I am waiting for the first hummingbird to find the nectar I just put out. My life is not perfect but it is good. I am aware God does not owe anything. Everything is by grace. And He owns everything.
