Today, our son turns 25, and this year has been one of incredible accomplishments and some difficult challenges. Watching him graduate college with degrees in bio-mechanics and nutrition was a moment of deep pride. His dedication, perseverance, and hard work have brought him to this point, and I couldn’t be prouder of the man he is becoming.
This year hasn’t been without its struggles. While celebrating his milestones, I know there have been moments of hurt and questions. Yet, through it all, our son continues to show resilience and strength. His ability to push forward in faith, even when it’s hard, reminds me of the truth in Romans 8:28. That God works all things together for good.
My prayer for our son is that he continues to trust God’s plan for his life. The gifts and talents God has given him are part of a greater purpose, and I’m excited to see how the Lord will use him in the years to come.
