Dear Beth,
Happiest of Birthdays to you!
I’ve just began Lisa Whelchel’s Prayer Journal for Busy Mom’s and you were one of the ladies mentioned on the list to pray for. How neat to know it was your birthday as well. I pray you will continue to be blessed…thanks for all you do!
By the way, where did you find the adorable flip flops? I’m due to have our 3rd child (a girl) in a few weeks…needless to say those cute flip flops might distract from the puffy swollen feet and cheer them right up!
Love you so much!
Laura Beth

Happy Birthday! I wish for you a grand shopping spree with the girls!
Of course June 16th would be Beth’s Birthday! It is my sweet Mothers Birthday too. Two precious Godly women born on the same day! A few years apart though…My Mother turned 85 yesterday. 🙂 Hope you had a great one Beth!
Love,

Con Amor, Siesta Tabita
(how could I pass up the opportunity…it just fits the occasion!)- If I could have I would have had my husband serenade you…for the pure fun of it- you would have got a kick out of it.

With love, siesta tabitha
Beth,
Happy Birthday! I pray that God will continue to bless you and use you in the lives of so many women. My friend katiegfromtennessee is doing a bible study with me (one of yours!!) and she told me that it was your b’day. We have enjoyed doing your studies and can’t wait to do the next one!!! Have a great day. Barbara
Happy Birthday Beth! We thank God for you and your ministry everyday!
Better late than never…
Please imagine this greeting spoken in the voice of Bambie’s buddy Thumper the Rabbit…
‘HAP-PY BIRTHDAY!!’
…this would be a precious birthday greeting used by my youngest daughter all her 24 short years of her life, reserved for only the dearest family and friends, of which you most definitely qualify.
I thank God for your life, love and passion for Jesus. What a difference you have made in so many lives, not the least of which is mine.

Happy Birthday Beth! I pray that God will Bless you and keep you. I am still praying for His comfort to envelop you from the loss of your sweet dogs. I pray that God will continue to use you, to cause Women, like me, to desire and hunger for the passion that you have for Him.

Happy Belated Birthday, sweet Beth! I pray that you were blessed! I am so sorry to hear about Beanie as well!!! Tammie told us why we were in Africa and we prayed for you! May an arrival in the near future of a little new puppy began an open door to a new season of joy in your home! My heart goes out to you! May you be blessed in His arms this year as you celebrate another year! I love you! 🙂
Happy, Happy Birthday Beth! I pray your day was as special as your are.
Thank you for sharing your special God-given talents and your love of life and family with all of us.
Blessings for the coming year,
Bobbie
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!
Birthday blessings to you Beth…..May all you have given to women across the world bring you joy, the Lord glory and fruit to come in heaven and here on earth. Praying for you and Keith in the loss of Beanie and Sunny…life is so bittersweet….we lost a German shorthair in a similar fashion (with seizures)….much love, Pam, El Cajon, California
Beth…you need to know that you have changed my life. Don’t get all fired up, I mean that God has changed my life through you!!!! You will never, never, never understand (until heaven) how much you mean to me and how instrumental you have been on my walk and in my healing. Sometimes I think that God made you just for me. The truths God has taught me THROUGH YOU have radically changed my life and set me free! I can’t wait to see you in heaven and give you a big huge hug. Please don’t ever doubt your effectiveness. I pray that God would use me as much as He has used you. When you write about the plan that God has for all of our lives, I can see that YOU are living YOURS!!!! I pray that I will live mine as well. God bless you dear Beth!
Love,
Lisa in RL, IL
Happy, Happy Birthday to you, Beth! I pray God’s greatest gifts for you today and know that He will meet ALL of your needs.
You’re currently teaching me through “Believing God.” Yes, He can and I believe. Many testings of late, but God is GREAT!

Happy Birthday sweet Beth! I pray you had a wonderful, wonderful birthday! Sunshine
Birthday blessings to you, Beth…May you know more of the Lord’s love, favor and pleasure this year as you continue to bless all of us with wisdom from the Word…praying for you during this sad time losing Beanie and Sunny….we lost a German Short hair (seizures are just awful) in a similar way…oh, the sweet presence and comfort of the Lord…much love and gratitude…Pam L. El Cajon, Ca.
Dear Beth,
I just had to add my belated wishes and prayers for many birthday blessings for you!
Actually, I was praying for you yesterday, but it was ALSO my precious daughter’s 13th birthday so the day was devoted to her. Imagine my delight when I found you both shared a birthday! I hope yours was filled with special surprises and many joys.
Now on to the Siesta Summer Study!
Love, Karen in OC, CA
Happy Birthday Beth! May God continue to reign down on your life, guide you, love and keep you!
Happy, Happy Birthday Beth!!!!
Thank you for all you do for the Kingdom! I am so blessed by the work you do in His name and I know for sure I’m not the only one!
God bless you today and in the next year!

Happy late birthday! I hope you had a wonderful and refreshing day in the Lord!

Happy belated Birthday! I’m so thankful God created you! You have touched thousands of lives for Christ… you are a beautiful example of living for Jesus! Many blessings!
As I read these posts my eyes fill with tears with all the love you have from us siestas. Sister, you are blessed!!!
I just want you to know that I love, know and believe Jesus so much more because of your teachings. And I admit sometimes I put you on the pedestal of perfection and God gently reminds me take you off and put Himself up there. And you’ll be glad to know I do. I also want to thank your family for allowing us to have so much of your friendship and time.
Happy Birthday Dear Friend! Are you going shopping with the girls and out to lunch this year? You are so dear to me! I pray for you daily, but on Tuesdays I’m signed up to pray from 6-9p.m. while you do Bible Study! So, I’ll pray blessings on you today continually!
I love you-
Lisa in Kirkland, WA

Belated Birthday blessings. Life is so bittersweet….with losses in the midst of celebrations. May you know and experience the Lord’s comfort and arms of love during this time of sadness (we lost our German Shorthair, the seizures were the worst part)….May the Lord give you tenfold what you have given all of us, the Word multiplied in our lives by your faithfulness to obey Him…..much love and prayers, Pam in El Cajon, Ca.
May your next year far exceed the happiness, grace and glory from God in everything you do. HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Happy Birthday Beth! So happy to be doing this bible study with you. Me and my girlfriends (who have all adopted girls from China) are doing this via our blog/email. Looking forward to it!

Awe Beth. Happy Happy Birthday.
I smiled big when I read this because my birthday was two days prior… and for some silly reason- knowing our birthdays are so close made me wanna hug ya.
Since that’s not a possibility… I said a prayer of praise and blessing for and over you!!
Love you Beth.

Thank God for your Quick Word today Spiritual Mom Beth:) Hope deferred can make the heart sick, and I know that there is a greater “yes” in this fertility struggle-(now I feel like cryin’ again…His grace is sufficient for me!)
The LORD and I love you much:)

31Only aim at and strive for and seek His kingdom, and all these things shall be supplied to you also.32Do not be seized with alarm and struck with fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom!
Sweet, sweet Beth…
I didn’t see this post until today – Thursday! So happy belated birthday Sweet Thang! You and your “in again” big hair need to whoop it up real good. Aren’t you glad your Mama didn’t “snatch you baldheaded” when you were a ‘youngin? How in the world could you ever enjoy a day like today if she had?? P.S. My Mama (who had southern parents) use to say that to us kids all the time. I just hooted the first time I ever heard you say it. I love you so, dear Siesta Mama…Jax in AK

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR BETH!!!
Thank you Father for this day that You have made Beth. We are rejoicing in it.
I know that this is belated but I have been busy with birthdays at my house too. My husband, my son and myself all have birthdays in a week.
Love you much,
Happy, happy birthday! I hope you had a wonderful day. Thank you so much for all you do for us. You are so amazing!
Just wanted to give you a sweet testimony. My Mom and I are doing “Beliving God” right now. We watched the 2nd DVD lesson last evening and my daughter, Natalie
(12), and niece, Jade (10), came from their play to catch the last half. My girl has been in church, familiar with good solid Bible teaching. Jade, not so much. But, in the last 6 months, God has put faith in her heart! She’s been teaching Bible lessons to her younger cousins (w/my Mom’s help) weekly.
After the DVD presentation was over, I asked her if she learned anything. She said, “I learned how powerful God is.” To quote Beth, “GLORY!” We prayed that the Lord will protect the seeds of faith He’s been planting in the hearts of these two young ladies and continue to water it. Jade’s homelife isn’t ideal by any stretch. God can redeem the years the locuts are eating and turn her sorrow to gladness.
Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to our siesta Beth….Happy birthday to you!!!!!
Hope you had a wonderful birthday!
