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!
Hallmark
Today is Pandemonium Day which is a day for people to accept that chaos is a part of life and it cannot be completely eliminated. Of course there are many ways to fight chaos in everyday life: files, post its, shelves, to do lists, boxes and recorded rules of living together help us to keep track of it.
Today is a reminder of the chaos and uncertainly that makes up most of our lives. We’re encouraged to take a different look at the upheavals and changes in life and take pause from the daily grunt and bring order and equilibrium in our life.
Don’t let today, or any day shake you up. If Pandemonium prevails, just go with the flow in a calm and cool manner.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Keep calm and carry on.

It’s not always easy to keep our cool when things get chaotic, but I’ve learned that although we can’t control our circumstance we can control our attitude to what happens.
I try to keep in mind that nothing lasts forever and this too shall pass. It’s far better to just go with the flow and be flexible.
Sundays are always my day to relax, refresh and renew from the busyness of the week so that come Monday morning, I’m ready to go again. We all need some downtime in order to be able to do our best. If we are not first good to ourselves we can’t be much good for others.
Remember that while every day may not be a good one, there is something good in every day when we take the time to look for it. Count your blessings and not your woes and everything will look a bit better.
Todays pictures are few of the views from my sunporch, so far this summer.
I hope you all have RELAXING Sunday!

Choosing to be positive and having a grateful attitude is going to determine how you’re going to live your life.
Joel Osteen
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
7246. for a day to rest
7247. for a sunporch to relax on
7248. for the blessings to be found in every day
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 ALL!

Keep calm, relax, God is in control.
I've got to share this with my son. One of his favorite sayings/advice is, "Embrace the chaos."
You have some great views out your windows Ma! We tend to live a lot in chaos but it is always good to have those days where things are peaceful and one can rest. I plan to do that today myself!

God is the one in control, as MA wrote. We are blessed.
