TODAY’S QUOTE
I was strongest when I laughed at my weakness.
Elmer Diktonius
HAPPY SATURDAY!
Our rainy weather has finally cleared up and today we’ll have a beautiful sunny day. So far this week it’s been cool enough to enjoy the fresh air and not have to close the house up and put on the a/c.
I don’t know what I’d do without my weekend off from work. Now a days it seems I have just enough energy to get through 5 days of work and not one day more.
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !
TODAY IS…SWIM A LAP DAY
Swimming is a healthy activity that can be continued over an entire lifetime. Yes, it's good for your heart and lungs, but the other benefits make it worth the effort to get to the pool. It can be a good break from the summer heat, a social outlet with friends, or relaxing recreation for the whole family. Signing up for water aerobics lets you get a good workout with no impact stress on the body. And best of all... it's a great calorie burner. Suit up!

TODAY’S SMILE
On still another diet, Sue had lost a few pounds and a lot of her usual sunny disposition. After making a snappish remark to her husband, she apologized and reminded him that he was supposed to stick by her through thick and thin.
"I know," he said, dryly, "but thick was a lot easier."
Drinking From My Saucer
By Jimmy Dean
I've never made a fortune
and it's probably too late now
But I don't worry about that much
I'm happy anyhow and as
I go along life's way I
'm reaping better than I sow
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
Haven't got a lot of riches
and sometimes the going's tough
But I've got loving ones around me
and that makes me rich enough
I thank God for his blessings
and the mercies He's bestowed
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
O, Remember times when things went wrong
My faith wore somewhat thin
But all at once the dark clouds broke
and sun peeped through again
So Lord, help me not to gripe
about the tough rows that I've hoed
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
If God gives me strength and courage
When the way grows steep and rough
I'll not ask for other blessings
I'm already blessed enough and may
I never be too busy to help others bear their loads
Then I'll keep drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
TODAY’S WORD
Touchstone
Pronunciation: /TUCH-stone/
n : formerly, a stone used to test the quality of gold or silver; now anything used to test the excellence, authenticity, etc., of something or somebody
TODAY’S REFLECTION
A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faith-fulness he will bring forth justice; he will not falter or be discouraged...
Isaiah 42:3-4
Have you ever had a disappointment that seemed to bring your life to a dead end? I have! There have been times when I felt that a tornado had destroyed my dreams Those were the disappointing times when I could only turn to my heavenly Father.
Isaiah tells us in today's scripture that God will not allow us to be defeated, if we don't give up and let discouragement overcome us.

TODAY’S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER’S ALMANAC
When mists rise in low ground and soon vanish, nothing is a surer sign of fair weather.
It’s Midsummer Day
Although Midsummer Day occurs near the summer solstice, or what we think of as the beginning of summer, to the farmer it is the midpoint of the growing season, halfway between planting and harvesting, and an occasion for celebration.

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your Heart
Psalm 37:4
