ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FriDAY, AUGUST 9TH, 2019
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.

Today is also Book Loves Day, which is a day that encourages us to pick up a book our two today and read a while. It’s a day for those that love to read and just take a great book and relax by reading it. Bibliophilia is the love of books. A book worm is someone who loves books for their content or who otherwise loves reading. A bibliophile may be , but is not necesarilary , a book collector.
The classic bibliophile is one who loves to read, admires and collect books, often amassing a large and specialized collections.
Virtual book collecting can be described as collecting books in a digital form on a computer or other electronic devices. Ebooks are now available on computers, tablets and most cell phones, making it much easier to carry around a book no matter where you are.
THOUGhT FOR THE DAY
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.
C. S. Lewis
Today's pictures are of DS#5s birthday last year. I’m blessed that he lives close by and usually do get to see him on his special day. Sometimes I even bake a cake for him, but this year DDIL#5 said she'd take care of it. I gave her the recipe several years ago now when I put a cook book together for the family with everyone’s favorite recipes..
I’m both a book lover and a book worm. I love books and love to read. Books have taught me a lot about things that I’d never have known otherwise. Reading is a great hobby and one if my favirite things to do. The great thing is there are so many different types of books that there is sure to be one that will satisfy your interests. It’s great to get lost in a book and escape the hectic nature of life. They make us smarter and more relaxed too.
I have several book shelves here and would love to have more. I also love reading on my Kindle e book reader which has helped to keep from collocting even more books.
I hope you all have FANTASTIC Friday!

Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military

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.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

It's wonderful to have at least one of my sons that lives close by.
Happy ☺ Birthday 🎂
And you know I'm a bibliophile...
Love my books 📚
I’m a life long reader! I have so many books I don’t know where to put them! They are stacked on the bunk bed stairs at home and stacks on the floor.....two stacks. They are everywhere including my book shelves!. The thing is - I don’t keep a book once I’ve read it - as a general rule. I do keep some special ones and some research ones. I need to read faster! Since we’ve been down here at the ranch I’ve read five books!
Your son and family look like they are a lot of fun!
Happy birthday to DDS#5! I hope he has a great day! Loved the pictures of him and your other family members having fun together!
I love to read and lately I've been doing most of my reading on my tablet with books I borrow from the city library. So many wonderful books out there to read!
betty
Happy Birthday blessings to DS#5! That's a great idea, putting together a 'cookbook' of family favorites. Our clan is small, but I think my DIL and #1 grand might appreciate some of my mother and grandmother's favorites.
