[Sally's Jubilee] Why "Sally's JUBILEE??"

[sallynava]

I like telling people that the word used here in Costa Rica for retirement is "jubilando" which you can see comes from the word jubilee.  And that is just what I am doing doing down here - "jubilating"   I just can't communicate how happy I am here doing what I wanted to do as a 22 year old new believer.  I miss my family sooo much and think of them all daily, but as we Americans are, they all have their separate lives and I feel I can use my remaining years doing what I thought I would be doing 40 plus years ago as my kids were growing up.  But, God, in His mercy, has given me the best of both worlds, three kids who have grown to be amazing, wonderful people and I had best not get started on my three grandchildren or this will go on forever!  So, I can visit my family and renew those relationships then return here to help the poor and needy  as our Lord requires of us (James 1:27,) The main point of this post, tho, is to encourage you to put God first in your life and think of me as the example of how He blesses beyond our wildest imagination if we put Him first.
