TODAY'S QUOTE

The year that is drawing towards its close has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God.

Abraham Lincoln

 

HAPPY SUNDAY!!

The first Sunday of Advent

I'll be putting my Advent Candles on the dining room table today getting some Christmas decorations out. I also need to start the Cards. I know some of my friends have put theirs in the mail already. There are always two cards that come the weekend after Thanksgiving. I can count on it.

Each year, for the beginning of Advent and in celebration of St. Nicholas Day I always send out little Advent calendars to all my family. This year due to circumstances beyond my control, they will not be going out, but I hope to add a little advent JOY into each of my newsletters !

Have a great day all !

Another wonderful one on the Way !

TODAY'S SMILE

PARKING

While walking through a parking lot, I tripped and fell flat on my face. As I was lying there, a woman stopped her car and called out, Are you hurt? No, I'm fine, I said, touched by her concern. Oh, good, she continued.

So will you be vacating your parking space now

 

CHILDREN REPEAT WHAT THEY THINK THEY HEAR

Sometimes it's hard to make out the words...

1. God bless America through the night with a light from a bulb

2. O Susanna, Oh don't you cry for me, for I come from Alabama with a band-aid on my knee

3. Give us this day our deli bread! Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Whole East Coast

4. We shall come to Joyce's bringing in the cheese

5. Yield not to Penn Station

 6. While shepherds washed their socks by night

7. Praise God from whom all blessings flow, praise Him all creatures, here we go

 

Be nice to your kids. They'll choose your nursing home

TODAY'S REFLECTION

But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

I Corinthians 15:57

 Let us be thankful today that we are in a nation where we are free to worship, as we desire. But even more important, let us thank God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

For each new morning with its light,

Father, we thank thee,

For rest and shelter of the night,

Father, we thank thee,

For health and food, for love and friends,

For everything thy goodness sends,

Father, in heaven, we thank thee

Ralph Waldo Emerson

TODAY'S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER'S ALMANAC

Soak pine cones in a solution of 2 pounds Epsom salts and 1 gallon of water. When the cones are thoroughly dry, toss them into your fireplace for colorful flames

24 DAYS UNTIL WINTER

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your Heart

Psalm 37:4

I Love You All !!!

Be Blessed !!!
