Yes, yes, I know the title is a play on words. On purpose! DOH! hehehe A funny moment for me was watching a Despicable Me 2 preview where a one-eyed minion looks at another minion in disgust and says "aie, aie, AIE" I kept thinking he was say "eye, eye, EYE". Get it? One eyed minion? Never mind...
I don't feel like I am anything special in the spirituality department, but I liked this quote from the devotional:
Those who have known the Lord for a long time or who have gone through great trials seem to have a better heavenly vision than the rest of us.
Does that describe you? I like to think it describes me, but I admit there are sooooo many things about which I am clueless! Clueless I say! I like the prayer at church "Forgive me of my sins, both known and unknown". I hate the unknown sins! How can I stop doing them if they are unknown?
ANYWAY, let's pray for each other for better spiritual vision. To see what God sees in each and every person. To have a better heavenly vision!
Lord, we cannot comprehend your love and your heavenly vision. Please help us do the best we can!
Technology Thursday
Fireworks are in the air for a few day to celebrate the birthday of the United States of America. I realized that I didn't understand all the technology used for fireworks displays, so I did some research. Here are some good articles:
The scientific flash behind the fireworks - Technology & science ...
Enjoy!
**********************************
CELEBRATE CALM
I refuse to give you power over my attitude and mood.
I refuse to allow you to dictate my response to you.
I refuse to give you the power to change my behavior.
I refuse to allow you to steal my peace and joy.
You can be mean. I will be kind.
You can hurt me. I will forgive you (but not trust you!).
You can be a jerk. I will have mercy.
You can be bitter. I will be grateful that I don't have to live with that poison in my soul.
I cannot tell you what you are going to do.
But I can tell you what I am going to do.
This is self-control. This is humility. This is dignity. - Unknown
