HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Get well wishes to all of the sick and shut in. Hope all of you are well soon and up and about. You are in our prayers and thoughts for a quick recovery.

Sympathy to all of the families who lost a loved one recently.  Sympathy to the Currin family of Saxe. Our heartfelt prayers and good wishes go out to all of you in your time of need.

Thought for the week: Beautiful things happen when you distance yourself from the negative.

Be Strong

You can’t change how people feel about you so don’t try, just live your life and be happy. The ones who say you can’t and you won’t are probably the ones scared that you will. You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life.

WISDOM

Don’t gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver or gold. A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination. Beware of false knowledge, it is more dangerous than ignorance. Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.

The older I get the more I realize I have little tolerance for drama, conflict and stress. I want to be around happy people, doing positive things and enjoying life. No weapon formed against you will prosper. Only God can turn a mess into a message. Turn a test into a Testimony, a trial into a Triumph, a victim into a Victory. People will hate you, rate you, shake you, and break you but how strong you stand is what makes you. God has no phone but I talk to him; God has no Facebook but he is still my friend. God has no Twitter but I still follow him because he loves me and I love him.

To all my readers, keep the faith; God sits high and he looks low. He knows all that you are going through. Love you all and have a blessed week.
