On my 42nd Bday

«Lord, remember David and all his self-denial.» Psalms 132:1 NIV

The context of this verse I remember very well, it was about David’s desire to build God a temple. The beginning of the chapter was what I have forgotten: David’s self-denial. It says that David will not do XYZ as his priority is ABC.

Today, as I turn 42 years old, my realization of the importance of saying no to certain things, keeping my ego in check, fasting from XYZ, and quality over quantity keeps growing and it’s becoming clearer and clearer the older I get.

Let us celebrate life as we tighten our potential and live with purpose.
