Today’s gift

I don’t know about you… but I love gifts.

… and yes that means that I both love to give and recieve them.

One of the worst feelings one can experience is to give a gift and know that it was never appreciated, used, or opened.

This morning God gave you a gift and you unwrapped it the moment that you opened your eyes…. This gift is called life.

It is my prayer that you will use this gift to be all that God has created you to be today.

Go shine your light in this world and make God smile.

Unapologetically yours,

John Eli Garay
