Daily Good Stuff 123

The start of another week. Today marks a new chapter of my life as I have given up being an usher. I told you why I did that earlier so I won’t bother with all the details. Are ya ready for another day of good stuff? Huh, are ya? Well, let’s get to it!

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge — that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:16-19

If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, then you never will change the outcome. Michael Jordan

Today in July History: July 13th

Today is a special day for the month as Julius Caesar was born. And July is named after him so, you know, big deal. In case you didn’t know, his son, Augustus, is the inspiration for August. Summer of Roman greats, I guess. Anyway,

1977 The New York City Blackout of 1977 lasts for 25 hours

Daily Good Stuff 122

Saturday. VBS at my church ended on Friday and we had a good time. If it seems like my posts this week have been rushed, it’s because they are. I spent my week preparing the lessons and then of course teaching. Next week, things will return to normal. VBS always makes me forget that my birthday is just a little over a week away. So let’s get this day out of the way, shall we? Well, not out of the way but let’s get to the post.

To make us love our country, our country ought to be lovely. Edmund Burke

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 1 John 4:9

So it’s Thursday and I just realized that Tuesday, you, the readers, set a new DALANEL record of viewing for a day. So a big thank you for that. As for July beating out the best month (June 2013), it looks promising. July most likely will be the best month yet and that’s an awesome birthday gift for me so thanks again. Let’s get to the good stuff.

The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work. Emile Zola

My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, LORD, I will seek. Psalm 27:8

And here we are in the middle of the week. Are you ready? Of course you are! I got two more weeks until my birthday (my birthday falls on Wednesday and I was also born on a Wednesday). So let’s get this party started. Well, today’s party that is.
