ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 19TH, 2020
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 International Men’s Day which focuses on improving men’s health, promoting gender equality and highlighting positive male models.
The origin of International Men’s Day can be traced back to the 1960’s but the first official celebration didn’t not occur until 1999. Dr. Jerome Teelucksingh conceived and coordinated the event in Port of Sprain, the capitol of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. He promoted the importance of male role models and received written support from the United Nations. Today over 50 countries recognize the event.
Celebrations of International Men’s Day typically included marches, debates, panel discussions, public seminars, art displays and more.
If you can’t see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Children have never been good at listening to their elders, but they never fail to imitate them.
James Baldwin
This grandsons birthday will be another long distance celebration for me so I’ll be lighting the birthday candle and putting a card in the mail filled with love and good wishes for a very happy birthday!
It is important for men to be good role models to their children and I think that DS#3 is a wonderful Dad to his children. They have the love and support that is needed to make them happy children. Matter of fact I think all of my sons are good fathers, they are following the example of their dad who was such a good man.
It seems to me that many young people pick super heroes for their role models, but that isn’t realistic. Nothing beats having a great Dad.
Last but not least in my news today is asking you to join me in prayer for another of my grandsons, our Prince Charming, who has now tested positive for Covoid 19. His mom says that Hockey, a sport he loves, is the culprit and where he was exposed to the virus . So far his symptoms seam mild with a sore throat and a temperature. I’m praying it stays that way and that he’ll soon be returned to good health.
I’m not affected at all because he doesn’t live close by and I’ve not seen him since this past summer. But his family is quarantined so please add them to your prayers too.iAs far as I know none of them are showing any symptoms. May the Lord bless this family and keep them well.
On my menu for today, yes life goes on, is:
Homemade Fish Sticks
1 can cooking spray
1 cup whole wheat dry bread crumbs
1 cup whole grain cereal flakes
1 tsp lemon pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup flour
2 egg whites, beaten
1 lb. tilapia or cod fillets cut into 1/2 by 3 inch strips
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet; coat with cooking spray.
Place breadcrumbs, cereal flakes, lemon pepper, garlic powder, paprika and salt in a food processor or blender and process until finely ground. Transfer to a shallow dish.
Place flour in a second dish and egg whites in a third shallow dish. Dredge the fish in flour, dip it in egg and then coat all sides with breadcrumb mixture. Place on prepared rack. Coat both sides of breaded fish with cooking spray.
Bake until fish is cooked through and the breading is golden brown and crisp. About 10 minutes.
Makes 4 servings
Recipes that use cooking spray can leave behind a residue that can be hard to clean, so line your baking sheet with foil before you apply the cooking spray.
I’’ll be having my fish sticks with some cole slaw on the side today. They do sound good.
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Being a role model is the most power form of educating…too often fathers neglect it because they get so cought up in making a living they forget to make a life.
John Wooden
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
