"Rise and Shine and Give God the Glory"
Never a day taken for granted. He was always sure to "Rise" and "Shine" with as much energy and enthusiasm as the day before as if he's surprised he woke up and as happy as a kid getting a new bike for their birthday. But he's right, each day is a gift. While his three kids grumbled in their beds, he would sing "rise and shine and give God the glory glory...!.'". He knew a secret to life, it's temporary.
You never know when it will end, and how lucky(or in his words, blessed) you are to be alive. He knew how to appreciate every day we are given, to see the sun again, to take a walk outside, and to dance with his grandchildren.
Nehemiah 8:10 “ ………….For the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
