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.
Slightly adapted from one of my morning devotionals
Life is a special occasion!
Today is National Gummi Worm Day which celebrates yummy candies created by the German company Trolli in 1981.
Gummi worms were not the first gummis made. The gummy bear was invented about 60 years before. The first gummi was created by Hans Riegel the founder of Haribo. Its was named because of its rubber like texture. In fact gummi means rubber in German. These creepy, crawly treats now exist in a variety of flavors. Sweet or sour, the choice is yours.
Celebrate today and enjoy your favorite gummi worms!
To see the bright side, polish the dull side
I think bears and worms aren’t very similar... until you think of gummy.

My mom used to make what she called dirt pudding and she would stick some gummi worms in that to make it look realistic. It was delicious and every one loved it, especially the kids. I’ve even heard of some using clean flower pots to put the dirt pudding in to serve it.
It’s one of the many summer desserts made with cool whip. Anything cold is good when it’s hot out.
Our little respite from the heat seems to be over. Once again we’ll be close to 100 degrees this week.
My SIL got the new deck for the swimming pool finished yesterday. They moved the furniture that was on the porch out there and put a couple chairs on the porch for me to use. I’d like to get a table and chairs to put out there but first we have some shopping to do. I had a nice patio table and chairs before I moved and would like to find something like that again. We shall see what we can find.
I hope you all have a GREAT start to this new week! Happy Monday!
Life is better with Gummy Worms.

PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
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 EMT’s.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
Keep calm and eat gummy bears because nothing will make you happier the way it will.
