It was a lot of fun celebrating my child’s birthday when they were younger. Today we enjoy remembering when they were small and we laugh at the many ways we made the mark each year. There were always cakes, friends and family. Sometimes they held parties that included trips to various cartoon characters, superheroes, or toy stores. They will say that the celebration made them feel special and loved. That’s not what we all want on our birthdays, but to know that we are special, loved and remembered?
Instead of a purchased card, perhaps the best way to honor someone’s special day is through biblical blessings woven into handwritten birthday wishes. By combining biblical quotes with a very personal birthday greeting, we bring the power of God’s Word to our celebrations and show our friends that they are more valuable than greeting cards.
