THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH, 2024
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
86 DAYS UNTIL WINTER
Life is a special occasion!
Today is National Chocolate Milk Day which is a popular beverage for people of all ages. Until the 1820’s, drinking chocolate was fairly uncommon and no one knew how to produce a smooth chocolate taste in liquid form. In 1828 the Van Houten company in Amsterdam invented the cocoa processing method. This produced a light fluffy chocolate powder that could be easily dissolved in water or milk.
Chocolate milk has surprising restorative properties. In 2006, the dairy industry conducted a study and discovered chocolate milk helps athletes with muscle recovery, it provides nine essential nutrients , making it both delicious and nutritious.
Celebrate today and pour yourself a tall glass of chocolate milk. Enjoy!
To see the bright side, polish the dull side
Animals shouldn’t eat gumdrops ! They shouldn’t drink tea or chocolate milk either.
Michael Buckley
Chocolate milk is something I rarely drink, but I think I need to do so. My muscles could use a little restoration. I had never heard how good it is for you before. Many of my grandchildren prefer chocolate milk and I keep a bottle of Hersheys chocolate syrup in the fridge for when they come to visit. I do drink hot chocolate in the wintertime though !
Right now it’s still hot out and I’ll be drinking cold chocolate instead. I always like my milk cold anyway.Just because I’m old doesn't mean I can't use the nutrients in milk. It is healthy for our bones too.
I hope you all have a GREAT day! Happy Thursday!
Chocolate milk has everything I need in a drink: the carbs, protein, and the electrolytes. It’s even backed by science showing how you’re able to recover. I can speak from experience, this is what I drink.
Al Horford
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
12,725. for chocolate milk a healthy drink to have
12,726. for chocolate anything. It’s always good
12,727. for sunny days and blue skies!
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
For kids and teens especially, chocolate milk would be an ideal recovery beverage because research shows that one out of 10 girls and three out of ten boys are not getting the calcium they need.

CHOCOLATE MILK IS GOOD TO DRINK AND GOOD FOR YOU TOO!
I don't drink chocolate milk anymore -- but when we had our 'Christmas in July' party I found a recipe for Adult Hot Chocolate that everyone loved. Basically, it's just chocolate milk mixed with hot chocolate mix -- and alcohol, if one desires.
I used to love hot chocolate - but I don't drink it anymore either. Sad but true.
