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 International Eat an Apple Day which is always celebrated on the third Saturday of September. Apples are absolutely delicious and they’re a healthy addition to anyone’s diet. There are so many ways to enjoy them, including apple slices dipped in peanut butter, caramel or dusted with cinnamon.
Make sure to Eat an Apple today !
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Everybody’s twelve years old in an apple orchard.
Rachel Ray
The pictures today are of DS#6 and his family when they took a trip to an apple orchard a couple of years ago. This is the time of year when apples are ripe for the picking. I bought a bag of apples this week at the farm market and today I’ll be making an apple cake, with a recipe from my mom.
Opps! I see I left out the word oil when I copied the recipe. I put 1/2 cup Veg. That is 1/2 cup vegetable oil.
Apples are good and good for us too. They say that apples have high nutritional value and are an extremely healthy snack. The peel alone contains antioxidants that help reduce damaged cells and fight diseases. Apples are also fat, sodium and cholesterol free.
We are supposed to have a nice weekend here with temps right around 80 degrees. It would certainly be a great time to get out and maybe pick some apples.
I hope you all have a SUPER Saturday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
Proverbs 25:11
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
6341. for apples, good and good for us
6342. For some nice weather to enjoy
6343. for tried and true recipes passed down from one generation to the next
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
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Proverb
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,

Happy Saturday !
Picking apples looks like fun! Never did that. Yum on the apple cake. Have had other recipes with apples in it, but never a cake. Have a great Saturday!
betty
I can't recall ever having visited an orchard; but man, that looks like fun!
What treasures, those recipe cards in your mother's own hand-writing.
I hope your Saturday is a great one!
