Happy Birthday, Matty!


Today is my brother’s birthday. Matty is exactly 51 weeks older than I. As a kid, I loved the week when my brother and I were the same age—and he hated it—for I would tell anyone and everyone, “My name’s Anita. I am 5 (6,7,8…) and my brother is 5, too!”

My brother is a great brother—and an amazing friend. I thank God everyday for MattyMatt!

Once our eyes are opened, we cannot pretend we don't know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows what we know, and He holds us responsible to ACT.
