IT'S MONDAY - BACK TO WORK !

CHAPTER 1, PAGE 16

 

Look on the Sunny Side

 

by Helen Steiner Rice

 

There are always two sides, the Good and the Bad,

 The Dark and the Light, the Sad and the Glad—

 

But in looking back over the Good and the Bad,

We're aware of the number of Good Things we've had,

 

 And in counting our blessings we find when we're through

 We've no reason at all to complain or be blue—

 

So thank God for Good things He has already done,

And be grateful to Him for the battles you've won

 

And know that the same God who helped you before,

 Is ready and willing to help you once more—

 

 Then with faith in your heart reach out for God's hand,

 And accept what He sends though you can't understand,

 

For OUR FATHER in heaven always knows what is best,

And if you trust in His wisdom your life will be blest,

 

For always remember that whatever betides you,

You are never alone for God is beside you.

 

 

GOOD MORNING

 

The ‘ordinary’ days of this week won’t give me a lotto write about.  I’ll be going to work and home again.   But I do love this kind of week, as it gives me the opportunity to do somethings, that wouldn’t otherwise get done. 

 

***BIG SMILE***

 

I’ve been able to keep up with my Bible study, and I pray a lot for all my friends and family.  One thing about quiet times in the evening – there’s plenty of time to spend with the Lord.  Unlike most people that are so busy that they rarely have any free time, I have it almost all the time.

 

I hope your day is blessed with some smiles and a little sunshine to warm your heart !

 

MA

 

  

Thought for today-

 

Jesus, please teach me to appreciate what I have,

 before time forces me to appreciate what I had.
