ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Life is a Special Occasion!

Today is Absolutely Incredible Kids Day which honors all the incredible kids in our lives. The day inspires and encourages kids to do amazing things by letting them know how incredible they are.
The day was created by Campfire USA as a day to show kids they are loved and cared for.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Zig Ziglar
I certainly have a lot of incredible kids in my life. I think they are all pretty awesome! Just in case I haven’t said it lately I want them all to know just how special I think they are. With my own children plus grandchildren there are quite of few for sure. Todays pictures are of just a few of the more resent pictures of some of the grandchildren. There are plenty more but this post isn’t large enough to hold pictures of them all. They are all absolutely incredible !
We are to warm up above freezing today. What a welcome relief. It has been bitter cold and the wind biting. We may even see some sunshine!
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday!
WHAT’S NEW IN THE KITCHEN
There is a food holiday to celebrate every day of the year!
It’s Artichoke Hearts Day
Artichokes protect against heart disease and cancer, nourish the liver and digestive tract, and reduce inflammation in the body, and they are delicious! One of my favorite ways to eat Artichokes is in a dip and here is a quick and easy recipe for you all today.
HOT ARTICHOKE DIP
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 cup chopped canned artichoke hearts
Combine all ingredients. Transfer to a baking and serving dish. Bake at 425°F until bubbly.
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Children represent God's most generous gift to us.
James Dobson
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
4732. for all the incredible kids in my life
4733. for Artichokes, good and good for you
4734. for a warmer day.
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.
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 ALL!
