Happy 18th Birthday Joshua Lewis
$Joshua4002
To my Favorite son who has been by my right side every step of the way. You are not my shadow but a huge light in my world💗
You have danced with me, cried with me, worked with me, build things with me, and have become one heck of a balloon artist. You have grown into such a young man who not only Loves God with all of your heart, but the way you have cared for and loved each and every one Of your sisters, and strangers who have entered your path.
Most importantly you have honored me and your Father with your love and always treated me like a Queen. Given the many transitions and adjustments our family has had to make over the course of two years, you have stepped into a position that wasn’t yours to take, yet, took it upon yourself to help out like many sons would have in the Bible days. You are unlike any young man I’ve Ever met. With tears in my eyes I still can’t Fathom how blessed I am that God truly answered my prayers and gave me a son! But more than that, he gave me so much more than I could’ve ever desired in a son!
Son, you have the most caring and sensitive heart. You carry a spirit of compassion and Weight for the loss that blows my mind.
I hear you pray for your sisters daily and you don’t give up on anyone. You are growing up so fast and becoming the gentleman your father has instilled in you. Tonight I had a moment of Discouragement, And while I thought everyone was asleep I went into the garage and closed the door to cry out to God for help.
When I heard the door opened, I was startled to learn you were awake and came out to see why I was crying and wouldn’t let up until I told you what was wrong😭
When did you grow up? how fast the senes of your life suddenly flashed before me. Every mother desires to give her children the world, but I don’t desire that for you my son, Because the world will never have anything good to offer you
Everything you need to fight the fires of this world is in you. You have the word of God and the truth living in you to quench every fiery dart.
Now that you are 18, I look over the many years and all it took to bring you to this point. I was Never the perfect mom, But most of it was your willingness to listen and to be better. The choices and decisions you made brought you to a place of surrender and mercy that you are right now. So many children and young adults today lack surrender and mercy. Mercy is a gift from God. Your heart is pure and I can’t tell you how proud we are to have taken a part in stewarding you for your future!
You graduate in less than two months and will be graduating with a 4.0 grade average. You have gone through so many trials and have come through each struggle with a testimony before you. Every piece of wisdom we poured into you has not been forsaken. We see you applying life lessons We have instilled in you over the years like an old soul. An old soul you are and have always been.
Likewise you have also challenged us over the years to be better servants of God and held Us accountable parents. Thank you for those corrections son!
My dearest son….. I could have posted so many pictures from the time you were a baby to your age now…. I chose to post this dance, Because out of all the things that you do you have a heart of worship not only to sing for the master but a heart to express your love towards Him through interpretive dance. The very fiber of your being expresses love and compassion for others even when they don’t treat you right. But keep loving anyway……Many things in life will look the opposite of what God said but don’t get discouraged, because the race is not given to the swift, but for those who will endure to the end.
I believe Gods will will be done in your life and through your life. I made a promise to God that if He gave me a son, I would dedicate him totally to Him and pour everything I had within me into Him about His word. I only pray I Fulfilled my end of the bargain and that God is pleased with the outcome. God has great plans for you son, but remember, you are not your own. And you will always be living your life to help build the next person up. Always give of yourself as God has given his son for us unselfishly. Never think that people are using you, but That God always positions us, TO BE USED by Him, so He may get all the glory. I love you and Happy 18th Birthday 🎂🥳❤️💋🥰💗
Profetic Dance
