HAPPY SATURDAY !

AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DDIL#4

May the dear Lord bless you today and always !

Maybe today the sun will shine ??? We were promised sun yesterday, but it didn’t happen. I won’t be doing the ‘house blessing ‘ today as the ‘Newlyweds’ are visiting…it will just have to wait.

DS#6 had his art show last night so they stopped off here, tomorrow DDIL#6 has a birthday celebration with her family so today being the day in between, they are here to spend the day with me.

Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

Please pray for God's protection of our troops and HIS wisdom for their commanders.

Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

GOD BLESS YOU !

TODAY IS… “EL GRITO” DAY

The celebration begins at 11PM on the 15th and continues through the 16th. "El Grito" (Cry For Freedom) are the words Father Hidalgo said on the night that Mexico began its rebellion and gained independence from Spain in 1810.

A friend of mine was in the hospital awaiting the arrival of her first child. When I telephoned the hospital to see if the baby had arrived, Dr. Wilson said it had. I asked if it was a boy or girl and was told that it was against hospital policy to give this information over the phone.

"Fine," I said. "I can understand that. But can you tell me what she didn't have?"

"It wasn't a boy," replied Dr. Wilson.

 

A friend of mine bought a new car that sported an on-board computer. One Sunday morning when he got into the car to drive to church, the digital display lit up.

Glancing at the readout, he chuckled at the announcement:

"Time for service."

TODAY’S WORD

lo·qua·cious adjective

Very talkative; garrulous. Synonyms talkative.

TODAY’S REFLECTION

All rivers run to the sea yet the sea is not full.

Ecclesiastes 1:7

This is a beautiful image reminding us that we have so much to give no matter what our age. It is good to be open to learning and to be open to something fresh and different in life. No one person can say that they have it all worked out or that they can give no more.

Our contribution to this world is crucially important. In God's eyes your contribution is the most special of all. That is why the sea is never full. God loves your contribution. Whether it's a drop or a flood every contribution is valuable.
