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 Banana Lovers Day which celebrates one of the most popular fruits in the world. The average person eats 33 pounds of bananas a year. That’s about 100 bananas per person.
Bananas are high in fiber and potassium. These properties can prevent calcium loss, high blood pressure, and certain kinds of cancer.
Although bananas grow on trees, the banana tree is actually an herb. The banana is the fruit of this herb.
Celebrate today and grab a bunch of bananas and enjoy eating them your favorite way. You can fry them, grill them, add them to a s’more or just enjoy them plain.
To see the bright side, polish the dull side
Time flies like an arrow - but fruit flies like a banana.
Terry Wogan
I enjoy my bananas sliced in my cereal. I try to eat one ever other day as they help keep my leg cramps away. I used to have one every day but too much potassium is not good for my kidneys.
I love banana splits, which we just celebrated recently and I like be make banana bread and banana cake too!
We never got any rain at all yesterday but it was a little cooler. This morning is very cloudy and looks like more chance of rain today, with a high temperature of 92.
I hope you all have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
Life is beautiful Just add bananas.

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
12,629. for bananas that are very good for you
12,630. for a higher probability for rain today

Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
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
Goals are like bananas, they come in bunches.

BANANAS ARE SO GOOD AND GOOD FOR YOU TOO!
I like bananas too Ma. They do contain a lot of sugar - but natural sugar. I think every other day is great.
I wish I could get Tom to enjoy bananas; he suffers from leg cramps a lot. Your photo reminds me, it's almost time for nut bread. (I know we can have it anytime, but the holidays have always been my traditional time to bake.)
