A thank you to friends!

So yesterday was my birthday. I now give this to myself a day late:

I want to thank all my friends for the amazing texts, Facebook posts, phone calls, Tweets, and emails.  Yesterday was such a great reminder these words are true:

 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it.

Luke 9:24 NLT

I didn't deserve yesterday but I'm sure grateful for it.  Thanks for being awesome.
