25--35--57

So my first two days of my sabbatical have been really cool.  Sabbatical by the numbers:  Sunday (June 6):  25 is the number of years since our move to Plano to plant a church.  Monday (June 7):  Jeannine and I celebrated 35 years of marriage.  Tuesday:  (June 8):  my 57th birthday!  Each of those numbers is a testimony to just how good God really is.  What I celebrate today is that God's goodness is rooted in His character not in my performance.  He is good because He is good-- not because I deserve that goodness.  Yea, God!

When you add 25 + 35 + 57 you get 127 and for the life of me I can't find anything of significance in that number.  Oh, wait!  Check out PSALM 127 and then you will see why 25 + 35+ 57 is such a great way to start a sabbatical!
Love to all -- especially to the woman I'm still in love with after 35 years!
