Happy Birthday, Michael!!!
“The magic of words is that they have power to do more than convey meaning; not only do they have the power to make things clear, they make things happen.” Frederick Buechner
Happy Birthday, Michael. You have been gifted with an ability to move people through words. You have within you a drive and a passion to see people know God more intimately and to love one another more completely. God has used you to impact each of us, through words, and it is good to have a day to celebrate that.
Praying for joy to envelope you today as you realize that your Lord delights in you, and we celebrate who you are. Blessings, my friend.

Happy Birthday, my friend….I’m sure you’re muttering under your breath at the moment that this post is up. We’re not sending you to Geneva, but we still want to celebrate. I am truly glad to know you, and happy to say, “Happy Birthday!”
Oh my, Happy Birthday and we are glad your back online brother.
Happy birthday Michael! God bless!
Thank you , Sarah…I never mutter when I see the man and my friends. 🙂
This is so a word for me.
I was the first person to hear the recorded version of “Over The Rainbow” by Jerry Lee…I had called his office as I had made friends with his secretary and she said “ask him yourself”.
She patched me into the studio and he played that song for me over the phone five minutes after recording it and then spent a half hour telling me how to and how not to live my life…and assuring me that the record was a hit. 😉
The whole point of the conversation was that you have to be what God made you to be…no matter what anyone thinks. “Follow your heart and trust God”…
That’s still my word…thank you.
birthday wishes for a banquet of joy, peace, surprise, and grace. blessings friend.

Happy birthday!
Great story about JLL! How exactly did you get his personal secretary’s phone number? Maybe you could sweet talk him into coming to East Texas to give a personal master class to a piano-playing-pastor of a little church. 😉
Michael,
Happy birthday! I can’t believe you’re 29…… 😉
Thanks all, you’re very kind.
That conversation took place in 1979 …I was still a pup. 🙂
A very Happy Birthday to you, Michael.

Sorry this is so late, but just couldn’t read these without saying “Happy Birthday Michael!” I count is such joy to have “met” you and be your friend. May this year be filled with God’s blessings and provision.
Hope you had a blessed day!
Happy Birthday, Michael. I’m grateful to count you as a friend. Thanks for your encouragment, listening ear, confidence and transparency. Have a great day!
Nonnie…you’re not late, I was just early 😉 I posted last night before going to bed….of course if I had been intelligent I probably could have set it to appear this morning!
Michael, I’m truly happy that the song had special meaning. I debated a lot about which song to post!
Happy Birthday Michael. May the grace of God pour out upon your life this year.
A very happy birthday to you.
Happy belated birthday Michael. Take care.
Happy Birthday, Michael, and I wish you many, many, happy returns of this special day.
