Serving the heart of California since 1892

We named him Lucky

The word “luck” or “lucky” is not usually part of my vocabulary. When good things happen in my life, I say, “I am blessed,” or I may say, “I am fortunate.” I don’t usually say to someone “Good Luck.” I usually say, “Best Wishes.” It would be extremely rare that you may hear me use the word luck.

I think people are lucky if they gamble and win something like the lottery, or if they hit the jackpot at the casino. That’s probably not a blessing. It is luck, and not a result of prayer or that God has favored the winner.

I hear people say they are lucky to have great parents, or lucky to have a good job, or something else that may be a pathway God has prepared. I had great parents, and that was truly a blessing for me.
