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!
Hallmark
Today is Make Your Dream Come True Day which is a special day for all those following a dream. It is a day to stop dreaming and start doing something to make your dream come true. It is not important what you do to chase your dream, but that you start doing today. Because what ever your dreams are, they usually don’t come true without effort and hard work. So get going and make your dream come true.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Dreams don’t work unless you do.
John C. Maxwell
Most of the time, I do feel as if I am living my dream. I’ve been able to retire and live on my own for several years now. I worked for a long time to reach this point in my life and have no complaints. When I was young it was my dream to become a wife and mother of a large family, that dream came true and back then I didn’t imagine retirement would be quite like this. But things happen and dreams do change.
It does take some effort and work to make dreams come true, But then, nothing in life worth having comes easy. If I want this dream life to continue, it’s going to take some effort on my part too. I don’t have a lot, but I have what I need and am thankful for it every day.
It is Sunday and as usual I’m off to church and with Christmas all put away, I can just relax and enjoy today. There is nothing urgent to do and what there is to do will wait until Monday.
I hope you all have a RELAXING Sunday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play, and to look up at the stars.
Henry Van Dyke
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
6697. for retirement
6698. for a day to relax
6699. for a warm and cozy home
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
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!

You are never too old to dream a new dream.
MA, your description of your life sounds like something I myself would have written. Exactly! I really don't have any dreams that haven't been fulfilled. I wanted to be a wife & mother too... and also a nurse. God gifted me with all three and I feel so blessed. Thank you for posting what I was feeling too. I find you & and I connect on a lot of things. Love, Andrea xoxo
You know, (I think) now I'm living my dream as well! It feels sooo good not to be trying to chase after one brass ring or another … trading one high for another.
Now to maintain. I particularly like your words, "nothing in life worth having comes easy."
So true dreams can change. Sometimes for the better too.
