ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 22ND, 2014
26 DAYS UNTIL SPRING!
Sunrise:7:15 am
Sunset: 6:10 pm
Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is not a day to brag or to boast. Its not a time to talk about your success or accomplishments. Why!? Because today is Be Humble Day!
Be Humble Day can be a humbling experience. That's exactly the intent of today. Humbleness is a good thing, a virtue. People much prefer a humble person to a braggart. Practice humbleness today, and everyday. It will serve you well in life.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
It's flattering to people who stop you and say that you've helped them and all. But, again, you know, you've got to stay humble because as quick as you came up, you can come down.
Joel Osteen
While I do like to boast about my wonderful family, I do try to be humble and believe me when I say that every time I’ve ever felt really great about something in my life, the good Lord has a way of bringing me back down to earth and making me very humble.
Bragging rights, Bragging rights everybody wants them. Whether it is the biggest house, the fanciest car, the most impressive wardrobe, the most well behaved children, everyone wants to be top dog in some aspect of their life.
Today is a day to recognize that you are not the best, and that’s okay, and that the world does not revolve around you. This isn’t the most pleasant thing to realize, but the world makes a lot more sense when you realize you’re not the only one in it. The best way I know to stay humble is to stay thankful.
I hope you all have a super Saturday!
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
Luke 14:11
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man given. Be grateful. Conceit is self given. Be careful.
John Wooden
I have counted at least 3 things every day that 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.
1430. for a loving Lord, that deserves all the praise for the blessings in my life.
1431. for my home, be it ever so humble…there is no place like home
1432. for a healthy does of humbleness for my soul
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 !
Remember, we all stumble, every one of us. That's why it's a comfort to go hand in hand.
Emily Kimbrough
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…

I like the thought of a humble day. A good reflective day I think. I also do think you have a great family and I don't think you boast too much about them, but I do know you love each and everyone of them and each hold a very special place in your heart.

Humble, I wonder how often you even hear that word these days?
