Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
October 13th is Face Your Fears Day. Take a moment to consider what your life might be like if you conquered some of your greatest fears. Face Your Fears Day gives you the chance to stand up to your fears, overcome them, and to seize the day.
Courage is knowing what not to fear.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Every new day is another chance to change your life.
Unknown
Every time life hands us something new or difficult or just plain scary, fear seems to be waiting in the wings, ready to pounce on our serenity. You can't live life to the fullest when it's full or fears.
Facing your fears does not make them disappear miraculously. They are still there, telling you why you mustn’t do this or that. But you can choose not to be held back by them. We have choices to make every day and we are the ones that decide what we want to do.
One thing I know, maybe two, is that Faith is God's antidote to fear. If we have faith that we are in the care of our loving Father’s hands, we have nothing to fear. Faith and a positive attitude are healthier for our bodies, more encouraging for those around us, and even more productive.
Remember: Nothing stays the same forever and this too shall pass.
Each day is a new start and our attitude to what happens is our choice.
I hope you all have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3214. for a faith that chases fears away
3215. for a new start every day
3216. for some cute scary pictures to share
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
72 Days Until Christmas
Start now to save money for Christmas. Make your goal a debt free holiday season. One way to do that could be to designate a large jar for holiday spending. Throughout the year, dump loose change into the jar each night, to be used for holiday cash.
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Snuggle in God's arms,
When you are hurting, when you feel lonely, left out…
let Him cradle you, comfort you, reassure you of His all sufficient power and love.
Kay Arthur
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma
You're blessed when you're content with just who you are—no more, no less. That's the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can't be bought
Matthew 5:5 (MSG)

Love your sweet and scary pictures this morning.
Such cute pictures of your family being dressed up to celebrate Halloween. It is a good thing indeed to face one's fears. It is also so reassuring to have God on our side as we do so!
betty
The pictures are so cute!
Facing our fears is a biggie, isn't it? I take God into anything I do....He is my strength. I am thankful for a positive attitude also. It makes all the difference.
Have a wonderful day!

At this point, I am so afraid driving the car. I am trying to keep going, and every day I face this fear. It's crazy, I KNOW. I have been praying and praying and I'll just keep praying.
