Ten Years of Bliss

The 27th of February was the tenth birthday of our eldest daughter Bliss. It was hard to imagine how time flew. Ten years have elapsed since she was born! The Lord rightly gave us a name for her, Bliss. It has indeed been a decade of bliss under the grace and blessing of the Lord Jesus Christ. Frankly, I have known no burden as far as family is concerned because the Lord blessed our family to the extent that all things are taking place in its own time. I simply have trusted and still have to trust in what He has in store for us. All these years have indeed been years of blessing and blissful joy. Praise the Lord!

As a father, I wanted to dine with my family on that day, so we went out for her favorite pizza. Though it was my night of fasting and prayer, the day was a day of prayer and feasting. I would not be bound by any law. I would fast when it is needed and feast when it is needed. This way, life is really enjoyable. A life in Christ, a life led by the Spirit, a normal Christian life, is a life of bliss with joy and peace.

Besides the Lord's blessing of our family life in bliss, I and my wife have also have been enjoying a married life in ease and peace. When Bliss was born we have been married for two years already. Our marriage life is on the twelveth year. What was out of God, and is through God, will always be unto God. Time and again the Lord has proved His faithfulness in leading us in our family life. All outward situations any human being on earth needs to go through, we still go through. In the midst of it, we have been experiencing the Lord's bountiful supply of grace and blessing within and without. 

Praise the Lord for Bliss and all these years of bliss!
