ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
JULY 8TH, 2009
TODAY'S THOUGHT
Never confuse speed with direction, or change with progress
James Carville
JUST FOR TODAY
We all need to look for the silver linings in our day-to-day lives
Just for today: I will be more aware of that fact that we are all one in the love of God. Love soothes the mind and heals the heart. Love creates a circle of strength linking us with our family, friends, and mentors. At the center of every circle of love is the presence of God, for God is love

IT’S WEDNESDAY !!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO DS#5 AND HIS WIFE!
May the dear Lord bless you both today and always!!!
It’s almost unbelievable but we have been having the most beautiful weather. I do hope it holds for the weekend as well. June was rather on the cool side and rainy so I’m hoping this means that July is going to bless us with some nice sunny weather.
With just a few days of sun it seems everything has been even been growing more. Rain is needed but sunshine is too.
It’s OVER THE HUMP DAY already and tomorrow will be my last work day of the week. I will be off to the camper for a nice 3 day weekend.
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

TODAY’S SMILE
Did you know that man is made up of many useless parts? A belly button that won't button, an Adam's Apple that isn't an apple, two calves that will never be cows, a chest that won't hold linen, and a nose bridge that doesn't lead anywhere.

A diner was agitated that the waiter had brought him no spoon with his coffee. This coffee, he said loud enough for most of the other patrons to hear, is going to be pretty hot to stir with my fingers.
The waiter reddened, made a hasty retreat to the kitchen and returned shortly with another cup of coffee.
This one isn't so hot, sir, he beamed
TODAY’S REFLECTION
Our sufficiency is from God
2 Corinthians 3:5
In the Gospels, we read that some people asked Jesus, What shall we do, that we may work the works of God? (John 6:28). What audacity! Only God can do the works of God!
Jesus’ answer instructs us all: This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent (v.29).
Our responsibility is to serve God faithfully, wherever He has placed us. Then we’re to leave the results to Him.
