ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
THURSDAY, AUGUST 12TH, 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 also International Youth Day which is a day to raise awareness about the young people around the globe. It’s an opportunity to think about the different problems s that the youth of today face, such as malnutrition and disease and to work together to find solutions. Together we can make a difference.
In 1999, the General Assembly of the United Nations designated August 12th as International Youth Day. The hope was that people would organize activities on this day that would educate the public about issues that involve youth. The assembly also wanted to promote the World Program of Action for Youth, which is dedicated to finding solutions to these situations.
To celebrate today think about any young people you know that use a friendly text or phone call . Use today to offer support.
If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
The failure to invest in youth reflects a lack of compassion and a colossal failure of common senses.
Corretta Scott King
This granddaughter is the youngest grandchild I have and also the youngest in her family. But she is no baby, If I’m not wrong, she’ll begin to go to school this year. That seems to me the greatest problem for our youth today, going back to school unvaccinated. I had hoped they’d have a shot for them by now, but now they once again have to wear face masks as their only protection. They are all in my prayers that they have a safe and happy school year. At least they are actually going back to school this year and not doing it online. I know some schools are giving people the option of whether or not to wear a mask, but I’m hoping all of my grandchildren will wear them and keep safe
This is sadly another long distance celebration for me so I’ll be lighting my birthday candle and sending out a card in the mail full of birthday wishes and love. This little one is growing up so fast and I don’t get to see her very often at all. They don’t live very far away, but are a very busy family and don’t have time to come in for a visit often at all.
This new variant virus is very contagious and spreading like wild fire. Wear your masks when going out, keep a safe distance from others and wash your hands often.
.
Today is my day to stay in and get somethings around the house done. It needs a lot, but I’ll be lucky to get a little done. Slow but sure. It’ ll eventually get done. If not, then my time on earth won’t be finished as I’ll still have a lot to do before I’m done.
I hope you all have a GREAT day! Happy Thursday!

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!
