TODAY'S THOUGHT

HAPPY SUNDAY
Yesterday morning we had a nice 2 inches of snow on the ground but it all mostly melted by afternoon. Today we should have some sunshine and probably a little warmer weather and by the end of this coming week it should be in the 50’s…sounds like Spring to me!
I had some good news from my Dad yesterday and that was that his tests were all negative . Thank the good Lord ! That is good news !
I’m off to church as usual and hopefully will get a few things done at home later.
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.
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… I CAN CROCHET DAY
The origin of crochet is up for grabs. China? Turkey? North Africa? The word "crochet" comes from the French work croc (meaning hook), but there is no record of this needlework before the 1800s. Written instructions were being published in the 1840s, but most patterns were handed down through family and friends. Girls were taught to crochet holding the hook like a pencil because it was considered graceful. They know today that holding the hook in the palm of your hand cuts down on carpal tunnel problems.

TODAY’S SMILE
Here's a bit of advice to help you in your end-times contemplation :)...
Don't worry about the world coming to an end today: it's already tomorrow in Australia.
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
-Luke 21:27
TODAY’S WORD

TODAY’S REFLECTION
O GOD, Thou art my God; I shall seek Thee earnestly; My soul thirsts for Thee, my flesh yearns for Thee, In a dry and weary land where there is no water. Thus I have beheld Thee in the sanctuary, To see Thy power and Thy glory.
Psalm 63: 1- 2
In this song of David, we see that he seeks God early in the morning. When David first opens his physical eyes, he also seeks God as he opens his spiritual eyes.
David sets the tone of the day by starting his day seeking God. David understands that nothing in the physical world on earth can satisfy his immortal soul.
We will find our happiness in the Lord. This weary old world is a desert – our hope lies in our true home, heaven? Reach up as far as you can, and God will reach down all the way.
John H. Vincent.
TODAY’S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER’S ALMANAC
Sprinkle salt on carpets to dry out muddy footprints before vacuuming.
2 DAYS UNTIL SPRING !

I Love You All !!!
Be Blessed !!!
