ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR SUNDAY, MAY 9TH, 2021
The moments 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 Mother’s Day which is our opportunity to celebrate moms, wives, daughters, aunts, grandmothers, sisters and all the wonderful people who have mothered us over the years. It’s a day to let them know how much they mean to you.
In England and other parts of Europe, people have been celebrating Mothering Sunday since the 16th century. Our modern American holiday is a realitvely recent tradition in comparison. In 1912, a woman named Anna Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia declared the first Mother’s Day in the United States.
Tell all the mom’s in your life how much they mean to you today and show your appreciation.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Motherhood. All love begins and ends there.
Robert Browning
Today I’m honoring the Mom’s in my family. My DIL’s and my daughter. They are all wonderful mom’s and I’m so proud of all they do. I love and appreciate all of them. They are the best! They are who my pictures are of today.
I’m very thankful that I’m a mom and think my children are all very special too. Having all of them makes my life worthwhile. There is nothing I’d rather be. Instead of any other career, I always wanted to be a wife and a mom. I always wanted 12 children, but was blessed with 7 instead. My own my mom and dad came from families of 10 children each and I always loved being part of a large family and wanted one of my own.
Family is one of the most important things in my life. The other two are my faith and my friends.
Have a safe and happy Mother’s Day!
I hope you have a RELAXING Sunday!

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!

Sorry I didn't have time to get all the pictures in today. I'm off to church this morning and don't want to be late. I'll come back and finish them up later on.
I hope you enjoyed the service today. Happy Mother's Day to you and all the wonderful moms in your big beautiful family!
So glad I was able to pull up this post today and enjoy your family's smiling faces. (Yesterday, I think the blogger gremlins were acting out.)
I've only one, but do cherish my DIL.
