"I know I do not deserve any of the things you give me, but you are ever faithful. So much I want , but I have everything I need to live life. Thank you for life, family, good friends, work, going out and coming in.

"Lord, perfect everything that concerns me. Make me an instrument of use, cause people to serve You through me. Use me as You wish Lord.

"I wish myself longer life in good health, and more wealth. Lord, I ask that you grant every of my heart felt desires, favor from all corners of the earth. May my later years be the best of my life. Happy 30th Birthday to ME."
