My sister's birthday

Over the past few months since my sister had her surgery I've really been noticing God's work in her life. She and I would fight all the time and she used to get really defensive right away when someone spoke to her. I've been trying really hard lately to just love her and God has really proved himself in this situation. I am able to talk to her like a sister now. I have never laughed with my sister like I do now. She is a really beautiful woman and I can say that with confidence and pride. I am proud of my sister. We may still have our differences sometimes but we have way more agreements now that ever before.

Today is her birthday and we are going out to dinner to celebrate. She is 26 today and I am excited about her birthday today. We are celebrating as a happy family this year. Last year she expected that we take her out and it wasn't a very happy day for anyone. This one so far has been an amazing one. The time that I've been able to spend with my sister is great.

Please pray that Cheryl with be drawn to the Jesus in me, and that I can be a good example as a believer to her.
