ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FRIDAY, JUNE 4TH, 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.

Today is National Donut Day which is a great holiday to celebrate and definitely on of my favorites. National Donut Day is celebrated on the first Friday of June and honors all the female volunteers who served donuts to the soldiers behind front lines during World War I. It began as a fundraiser for the Salvation Army in 1938.
To celebrate today, many places hand out free donuts. Be sure to check your local donut shops for special promotions.
Pick up a freshly baked donut or buy a box to share with friends. Happy Donut Day!
If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
New mysteries. New day. Fresh Donuts.
David Lynch
Today’s pictures of the Donut Trail here in Ohio. It’s a series of bakeries to visit that feature donuts. Both one of my son’s and one of my granddaughters have done the trail and took pictures to share.
I haven’t done it myself, but donuts are one of my favorite things. I have them with my morning coffee, for a mid morning break and sometimes for dessert in the evening. Anytime of day is good to eat a donut or two.
I’ve really been trying to cut back on how many I eat so instead of having two I’m eating only one these days. I can’t quite seem to give them up all together.
I hope you have a FANTASTIC Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
The optimist sees the donut, the pessimist sees the hole.
Oscar Wilde
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
9237. for donuts, my favorite treat
9238. for plenty of pictures to share from family
9239 for a good cup of coffee every morning
.
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!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
As you ramble on through life, brother, whatever be your goal, keep the eye upon the donut, and not upon the hole.

Have a donut today and enjoy1
No donuts for me today but the donut trail sounds like fun! Enjoy the weekend Ma! :)
I love the idea of a donut trail! Anytime I think about donuts I'm reminded of a former co-worker. Joan and her (adult) daughter agreed to go on a diet together and set what they considered a reasonable daily amount of calories. Except as it turned out, they'd go to their favorite donut shop for breakfast and eat all their allotted calories in one sitting!
