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.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
It's your birthday today, so why are we waiting?
Without further delay, Let's start celebrating.
Norman Wesley Brooks
I always like to say that this Son in Law is my favorite. In fact he is my only son in law, but thankfully I did get a good one for sure and I’m sending out birthday wishes for a very happy day!
Today is also International Nurses Day which is celebrated on the anniversary of Florence Nightingale's birth each year, to mark the contributions nurses make to society.
Nurses play a key role in all of our medical institutions, being responsible for the welfare, safety and recovery of patients. Nurses have an enormous amount of knowledge and many diverse skills they spend years perfecting and developing, all the time working in decidedly tough environments where extreme stress is just a part of the job. Nurses help bring new life into the world and care tirelessly for the sick and injured,
It’s to be a pretty nice day here in my part of the world. Two of my old friends are coming over for lunch today. It’s been awhile since we got together and it will be good to catch up with them.
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!
WHAT’S NEW IN THE KITCHEN
There is a food holiday to celebrate every day of the year!
It’s Nutty Fudge Day which is a day you don’t want to miss if you have a sweet tooth! The recipe I found to share today is gooey, nutty goodness in one easy bar!
Easy Nutty Fudge Bars
Base
1 box yellow cake mix
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 eggs
Topping
1/2 cup butter
1 cup dark chocolate chips
14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
12 oz can salted mixed nuts

In large bowl, stir Base ingredients until well blended. Press evenly in bottom of pan.
To make Topping, in medium microwavable bowl, microwave 1/2 cup butter uncovered on High 30 to 60 seconds or until melted. Add chocolate chips; stir to melt. Microwave 15 seconds, if necessary to melt chips.
Add condensed milk; stir until completely blended. Pour over base in pan, spreading evenly. Sprinkle with nuts.
Bake 28 to 30 minutes or until topping is set. Cool completely, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows .
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Why celebrate a birthday only one day out of the year?
Why not celebrate life every day? I can!
I can make every day a day for giving thanks!

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
4882. for DSIL, it’s his birthday today
4883. for the sweet and salty, a great combination
4884. for all nurses, they do an important job
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!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
There are three hundred and sixty four days when you might get unbirthday presents... and only one for birthday presents, you know.

A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…

Wishing your DSIL a super birthday!
I didn't realize it's Nurses Day today, but driving into work this morning I was trying to think of something nice to do for the awesome team that supported me before surgery on Tuesday. Personally, I can't imagine having to do what they face every day, but I'm mighty glad they do!
