TODAY’S QUOTE

Work is either fun or drudgery. It depends on your attitude. I like fun.

Colleen C. Barrett

HAPPY MONDAY

 BACK TO WORK

Just like the quote above says we can make our work fun or drudgery and I do prefer fun but Mondays are not often very fun days. I am sipping the good coffee and will get out the door here in a bit. Maybe I’ll need two cups !

It was a beautiful sunny weekend here with temps in the 40’s ! Today it may be in the 50’s. Maybe Spring will come afterall!

Have a great day ! 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.

25 WORDS

God, I thank You for today, for the ways You will bless me, and for the ways that I will serve others in Your name

TODAY IS…GIRL SCOUT DAY

Originally modeled after the British Girl Guides. The first group was started in Savannah, Georgia in 1912 by Juliette Gordon Low - with 18 members. Her dream was to get girls out of the house to serve in the community and enjoy the open air. Girl Scouts became a national organization in 1915 and has been growing ever since. And, boy, can they sell cookies!

TODAY’S SMILE 10 THINGS THAT YOU SHALL NOT DO

1. You shall not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.

2. You shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.

. You shall not carry grudges, for they are the heaviest of all life's burdens.

4. You shall face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.

5. You shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows.

 6. You shall not borrow other people's problems. They can better care for them than you.

7. You shall not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, it is forever gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now!

8. You shall be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear ideas different from your own.

9. You shall not become "bogged down" by frustration, for 90% of it is rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.

10. You shall count your blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one. ·

TODAY’S WORD

tenebrous

(adjective) [TEN-ah-brahs]

 1. dark and gloomy; 'a tenebrous cave':

"Only moss could grow in this tenebrous corner, and I want to grow roses."

noun form: tenebrosity

TODAY’S REFLECTION

Do you bring in a lamp to put it under a bowl or a bed? Instead, don't you put it on its stand?

Mark 4:21

Jesus told his disciples that their lives should shine, so that others would want to find out whom they had in their lives that was so special. you have to let the joy of the Lord be your strength.

You can choose to think only about your problem and feel weak and helpless, or you can depend on the Lord and be joyful. It is your choice! We cannot choose our circumstance because life is not always fair. But we can put our faith in God and choose to lift up the light of Christ in a world that is filled with darkness.
