ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
THURSDAY, AUGUST 19TH, 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 Potato Day which celebrates the popular part of diets around the world for centuries. More than 45 billion pounds of potatoes are harvested in the U.S. each yaar. We use them to make baked potatoes, mashed potatoes and home fries and French Fries…the list is endless.
Potatoes are not only tasty, they are good for you. They contain high levels of important vitamins and minerals, such as Vitamin C, potassium, and iron.
To celebrate today enjoy potatoes prepared in your favorite way.
If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side
I have made loaded baked potatoes often to have for dinner, but these days I’m trying to cut back and I’ll have sweet potatos more than white ones. I’ve found out that since they are high in potassium they are not good for our kidneys so I’ll probably be cutting back more. I also love potato chips and am now having corn chips instead. I’ve been getting the low salt ones and they are lower in potassium.
I want to be healthy so will do what ever it takes .
We lucked out yesterday and the rain went south and east of us so it turned out to be a pretty good day. I got all my shopping and errands done, so today I’ll be spending some time in the house. There is always a lot to be done.
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday!

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
9456. for potatoes good and good for you
9457. for our farmers market with fresh vegetables
9458, for a wise doctor
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!
It’s a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

A little smile, a word of cheer,
