Blue Monday: Monday's Medicine

This is my first Blue Monday post, and I am excited to participate. Smiling Sally host Blue Monday on her blog, be sure to visit all the Blue Monday participants today and see all the blue on display.

There is a saying on the negative side about BLUE MONDAY but I think we can look at it on a POSITIVE side and say YES we have another chance this week to do better than last week---last week is never to return so forget it.

There is another saying "A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing." Prov.17:22 (amp.)

So this Monday I want to put a smile on your face to start the week with a laugh--it will be good medicine. Since May is the month for Mother's Day I want to give you a sample of what some 2nd grade children had to say about mothers.

WHY DID GOD MAKE MOTHERS?
1. She's the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.
2. Mostly to clean the house.
3. To help us out of there when we were getting born.

WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO MAKE YOUR MOM PERFECT ?
1.On the inside she's already perfect. Outside
I think some kind of plastic surgery.
2. Diet. You know, her hair---I'd diet, maybe BLUE.

Kids really have great imaginations and just tell it the way they see it.

So have a HAPPY week, put some laughter in and wash away your blue feelings. I hope you enjoyed my Blue Monday post...Have a great week!

Count Your Blessings

Well, I thought I would try to do a FRIDAY'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT to help you over the weekend. So this is my first one. I found this and it really speaks about my life and where I am and how I see things----I have had a lot of ups and downs in my life, and I have learned through the years, even if we are alone in the natural sense we are never alone, and I have the best friend anyone could have and that is Jesus and I give Him all the honor because without Him I could not have made it,because most of my life I was a single mom,(still am), and things got rough at times but I am still going strong at 71---made lots of mistakes as we all do esp. when under stress, but you can't let past mistakes and failures keep you down--you just repent, ask for forgiveness and go on and do what is best. So I hope this poem will give you some FOOD FOR THOUGHT---have a great weekend !

I've never made a fortune,
and it's probably too late now.
But I don't worry about that much,
I'm happy anyhow.

And as I go along life's way,
I'm reaping better than I sowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

Haven't got a lot of riches,
and sometimes the going is tough.
But I've got loving ones all around me,
and that makes me rich enough.

I thank God for His blessings,
and the mercies He's bestowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

I remember times when things went wrong,
My faith wore somewhat thin.
But all at once the dark clouds broke,
and the sun peeped through again.

So Lord, help me not to gripe,
about the tough rows I have hoed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

If God gives me strenth and courage,
When the way grows steep and rough.
I'll not ask for other blessings,
I'm already blessed enough.

And may I never be too busy,
to help others bear their loads.
Then I'll keep drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

When I think of how many people
in this world have it worse than I do.
I realize just how blessed most of us really are.

I hope you have enjoyed your Food today.
and counted your blessings so
you can drink from your saucer
"Cause your cup overflowed.

Have a blessed, fun-filled weekend !!!

Encouraging Myself

POTENTIAL

You and your talents
Are not an accident.
You are special in God's eyes.
You have distinct gifts
And talents.
You have shoes to fill that
No one else can wear.
Inside you is enormous
Potential just waiting to be
Developed and put to use.
by-John Maxwell


Hope this will encourage someone today that may be down and feel discouraged,as we all do at times. Never Give Up !!!!!!
