Let us be merciful as well as just.

IT’S THURSDAY !!
Surprise ! If you don’t already know we were surprised yesterday with another foot of snow on the ground. Thankfully it was the light fluffy stuff and although I was late, I did make it into to work.
They said it was Lake effect snow coming over Lake Huron right to us.
I had to laugh as I didn’t think it was possible to pile up any more here, but we did…
Last week the UPS delivery man at work had told me we were due for another storm this week and he was right…
He hasn’t been in this week yet to give me a new prediction.
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

What Your Achoo May Say about YouMeet the four sneezer types.Being sick is no fun, but checking out sneeze styles can be a hoot if you remember to stand upwind of the spray.After studying the ways people sneeze, Atlanta-based behavior expert Patti Wood and Steven Lamm, clinical assistant professor of medicine at New York University, drew a conclusion:
Sneezers come in four main personality types (see below).
Which sneeze is best?
"The healthiest way to sneeze," Lamm says, "is in one of the more 'contained' styles, such as the turn-away sneeze."Wood explains why: "A sneeze expels air from the nose at 100 miles per hour, sprays 100,000 bacteria and travels as far as any wind current.
Which sneezer are you?
The Sensitive Sneezer.One small sneeze and it's over. You're polite, always turning your head away. You're the warm, friendly type who enjoys a relaxed pace. Relationships with others are your top priority. You avoid conflict even if it means making personal sacrifices.
The "Be Right" Sneezer.When the big achoo comes, you cover your mouth. You are careful, accurate and a deep thinker. Before speaking, you consider the right words. Detailed and precise, you catch mistakes others miss. You have great insights and opinions, if others would just listen.
The Get-It-Done Sneezer.When possible, you hold in your sneeze. But when a sneeze finally escapes, it's a 4.0 on the Richter scale. You are fast, efficient, uncomplicated and self-sufficient.
The Enthusiastic Sneezer.When you sneeze, it's in multiples and blow-the-house-down loud. You are a charismatic leader and influencer who is imaginative and intuitive. You seek and cherish relationships with others.

TODAY’S REFLECTION
Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by twoand gave them authority over unclean spirits.

We might think about how precious was the assignment of the Twelve and how precious is our assignment to mirror the mind and heart of Jesus as well as we can to the people we meet this day
