If you have knowledge, let others light their candles in it.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
There are only two ways of spreading light -
to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.
Edith Wharton
Happy All Hallows Eve! Yes, today is Hallow’een and I’m ready for all the little trick or treaters that will be coming to my door tonight. There is a big chance of rain so we may not have many.
I do love candles and the pictures today show just a few of them. I have seasonal ones and plain ones for everyday. The scented ones are my favorites. With the dark days and evenings, candles do shed a lot of warmth and light. They make my house seem a little cozier when it’s cold out.
I’ll be praying for all the little trick or treaters out on the streets tonight. May the dear Lord keep them safe.
Hope you all have a safe and happy Halloween!
2nd REMINDER
This coming Sunday, November 3rd, set your clocks back one hour!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary.
Aaron Rose
I have counted at least 3 things I'm thankful for this past year and have now reached my 1000 gifts. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1088. for fun holidays to celebrate
1089. for candles that brighten up a dark night
1090. that I’ve plenty of candy to share with others
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU !
A candle loses none of its light by lighting another candle.
