A 25th Birthday Tribute to our Joshua

January 25, 1998
Super Bowl Sunday
your “due date”
But your arrival came late.

Such a handsome baby boy
With a unique disposition,
Raising you to serve Jesus
Has always been our mission.

Your kindness, strength, courage
refreshing.
Your strong will and persistence
Help with life’s testing.

Some life trials
I wish you’d been spared
But it’s in the refiners fire
That we are prepared.

Jesus daily pursues you
His guidance never ending.
His Intercession , his love
for you, never bending.

As life continues
Temptations arise
When you’re facing a crossroad
Make sure you choose wise.

You are a treasure
A true gift from above
From our front row seats, watching
We send birthday love!

Happy 25 birthday Joshua!
In all that you do
Keep looking to Jesus
Keep being unique, keep being YOU!

Love Mom and Dad
