ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

TODAY'S THOUGHT
If you keep your nose to the grindstone rough,And keep it down there long enough,In time you will forget there are such things,As brooks that babble and birds that sing;And of these will all your world compose:Yourself, the grindstone, and your poor old nose.Author Unknown
JUST FOR TODAY
We all need to look for the silver linings in our day-to-day lives
Just for today: I will lovingly nurture my faith in prayerful moments. Quiet moments with God allow me to express my heartfelt desires. I will relax and trust that blessings will be unfolding in His perfect time and I will feel more secure each day.

Live like you'll die tomorrow, work like you don't need the money, and dance like nobody's watching

IT’S TUESDAY !!
Summer is here and it really feels great!
It’s supposed to be another beautiful day here. When it is so nice out it is hard to believe that it can be so cold and icy in the winter. I almost forget what it was like to be cold. Almost but not completely that’s for sure.
DS#1 called yesterday evening to say that they were home from their trip and they had a good time. DS#5 had also called to see how to make Cabbage and noodles but I missed his call because I was outside, so when I called him back he’d managed to fix it all on his own and since he has so much of it, I’m invited over to their house for dinner tonight. That is one meal that is still very good when it’s reheated so of course I’ll stop there on my way home from work today.
It’s terrific Tuesday which is supposed to be the best day of the week! We’ll see…
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

TODAY’S SMILE
On the church newsletter were these instructions - Hold this paper close to your nose and breathe deeply. If the sheet turns green, you need to see a doctor. If it turns blue see your dentist. If it turns red see your bank manager. If it turns black, you need to check your will so see your lawyer immediately. If, however, it does not change color then there is nothing wrong with you and so there is no reason why you should not be in church again next week
One more…
It makes me glad to make up hums.
It makes me glad when Christmas comes.
It makes me glad when bees make honey.
It makes me glad when days are sunny.
It makes me glad to win a game.
It makes me glad that friend is your name.
It makes me glad when spring is here
It makes me glad when birthdays are near.
I saved the best one for the end.
It makes me glad you are my friend
TODAY’S REFLECTION
He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.
1 Thessalonians 5:24
The apostle Paul encouraged the Thessalonians to give their all for God. They were to exhort, warn, comfort, rejoice, pray, and express their gratitude to God—among other things. We too should always do our best in our Christian life and service. But when pressure periods come and we just don’t have the time we feel we need, we should do the best we can and then prayerfully trust God’s faithfulness
