TODAY IS...DINOSAUR DAY

The word "dinosaur" was invented by Sir Richard Owen in 1842 to describe "fearfully great reptiles" - and there were only three dinosaurs known at the time. Scientists have now identified more than 700 speicies in many shapes and sizes. They lived from 225 million years ago up until about 65 million years ago. But, actually they live on today as the birds

TODAY'S SMILE

One Spring afternoon, I came home to find two little girls on the steps of my building. Both were crying hard, shedding big tears. Thinking they might be hurt, I dropped my briefcase and quickly went over to them. "Are you all right?" I asked.

Still sobbing, one held up her doll. "My baby's arm came off," she said. I took the doll and its disjointed arm. After a little effort and luck, the doll was again whole. "Thank you." came a whisper.

Next looking into the tearful eyes of her friend, I asked, "and what's the matter with you, young lady?"

She wiped her cheeks. "I was helping her cry," she said

TODAY'S WORD

mas·ti·cate verb

1. To chew (food). 2. To grind and knead (rubber, for example) into a pulp.

TODAY'S REFLECTION

Then Peter said, Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk

Acts 3:6

 Peter and John were going into the temple and a crippled beggar asked them for money. The crippled man was indeed blessed by Peter's answer. We modern-day Christians may not be able to perform miracles, as did Peter and John, but God knows what is needed. If we are available, he will guide us to give what we have. From Daily Guideposts

TODAY'S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER'S ALMANAC

To cure hiccups, pant like a dog

24 DAYS UNTIL SPRING

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

Psalm 37:4

I Love You All !!!

Be Blessed !!!
