My Friend Bill 2

Like an ever-glowing sunrise ascending over the horizon, God puts great people in our lives to serve His purpose. I have been the recipient of such gifts from God for many years. They have enriched my life and assisted me in living out God's plan for my life. Some years ago, I walked into a room filled with people. Among those seated was a man some 15 years my senior whom I have known for over 30 years. On that occasion, I captured a special moment and stored it deep in a special compartment in my heart. It remains there and shall never depart. When this dear friend of mine saw me walking in, our eyes met as I heard him say, "There's Curtis". Those words meant the world to me. Not only did I hear those words, but I read his heart from which those words sprang. This man and his wife have never ceased to encourage and support me. Indeed, he has always been a God send to me. His name is Bill, and he turns 90 tomorrow. I am more than thrilled to say, Happy Birthday, Bill. 091124PS
