Laughter is good!


Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

We have enjoyed a really nice Sunday thus far. Embraced the Vision Channel yet again; and to repeat, here are websites for those of you, who wish to learn more about Christ; as well as being given encouragement and HOPE. ie. 'Hour of Power' (Dr. Robert Schuller & Dr. Sheila Schuller Coleman - www.hourofpower.org); 'Enjoying Everyday Life' (Joyce Meyer - www.joycemeyer.org); and 'Living Truth' (Charles Price - www.livingtruth.ca). There are also other illuminating websites to tune into and appreciate as well.

As of today, we moved the clocks one hour forward; so my coffee was all the more inhaled by me this morning! LOL!

On 'Hour of Power', everyone was an inspiration! For those of you who need a bit of a boost, read about guest Scott Rigsby, who lost his legs in an accident; and how he overcame obstacles - WITH HIS HELP. An awesome story; is told in his book, 'Unthinkable'. Sheila Coleman, who is a breath of fresh air, shares that it is important to GROW during the tough times. ie. In tid times of 'Not knowing' why or what is happening; simply just say 'Thank You' to Him, and 'Praise Him in ALL Things'. Romans 5:3-5 tells us about having PERSERVERANCE, CHARACTER, HOPE, which brings about endurance, patience, and GRACE. Sheila wrote a poem 'Anchored' and it is 'right on'.

On 'Enjoying Everyday Life', Joyce and her guest, Dr. Linda Mintle (a family therapist and author of 'Press Pause, Before You Eat') spoke about the TIDBITZ importance of sound sleep, healthy eating, MORE laughter / singing out loud, spicey foods, exercise, etc, to live a happier and less stressful life. Also, it is meaningful that a family sits down together for their family meals; as opposed to always being in a hurry, fast fooding, etc etc etc. In a BITTIDZ, 'slow down'; take the time to enjoy nutritional food and social dialogue / meals with your family; rather than being constantly caught up with 'busy busy busy'. When one is on such a hectic treadmill, one becomes 'irritable', 'stressed out', as well as a future potential candidate for heart attacks, run-down immune systems, disease, etc.

On 'Living Truth', Charles and Hilary Price revisit their trip to the Holy Land. Enlightening Biblical insights about Jesus' life. As well as about Moses' journey of going 'around and around in circles'; that ended up taking forty years, isntead of eleven days! Alan and I still would love to go to the Holy Land with 'Living Truth' in November, 2010; and we remain forever hopeful that things will work out in this regard. I have already checked into the itineray; and all I can say is WOW! WOW! and WOW!

Alan and I, along with our 'pup', Blue, have been invited to my son's for dinner tonight (as per my March 12th & 13th posts); should be a fun evening, methinks! Also, as per yesterday's post, the above photo image reminds me of our dear friend who passed away two years ago today. I will never forget his wonderful sense of humour!

Peace and God Bless.
