Have you seen the new Discovery channel (it might be the History channel) show about money? It was so very interesting and informative. Let me give you a quick recap…..

First, did you know that the special paper for US currency is made from blue jeans? Blue jeans manufacturers send all of their denim remnants to the US mint to be processed into paper. You know how jeans last forever…..well, this is why our paper money lasts so long. A bill can be folded up to 4,000 before it will tear.

Something interesting about coins was that the first US coin with a president on it was the Lincoln penny. I automatically thought that it would have been Washington. But, it turns out that Washington did not want his image on a coin, because he felt it would be too closely connected to British coins (who had the King’s image on them) and Washington wanted nothing to do with THAT. But, after his death the US decided to honor ol’ George against his wishes, giving us the dollar and the quarter.

Jesus - Why We Celebrate Easter

*In chemistry, He turned water into wine.

*In biology, He was born without the normal conception.

*In physics, He disproved the law of gravity when He
ascended into Heaven.

*In economics, He disproved the law of diminishing return by
feeding 5,000 with two fishes and five loaves of bread.
In medicine, He cured the sick and the blind, without
administering a single dose of drugs.

*In history, He is the beginning and the end.

*In government, He said that He shall be called wonderful
counselor, prince of peace, mighty God.

*In religion, He said that no one comes to the Father except
through Him.

*Jesus had no servants, yet they called Him Master; had no
degree, yet they called Him Teacher; had no medicines,
yet they called Him Healer.

*He had no armies, yet rulers feared Him.

*He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world.

*He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him.

*He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.

I feel honored to serve such a leader who loves us! Join me and let’s celebrate Him; He is worthy.

Remain in Christ and seek His face always!
AMEN
Have a blessed Easter!

Have you ever felt like you were in the middle of learning something, only you didn’t quite know what it was? Ever heard the saying “Please be patient because God isn’t finished with me yet.”? Well, thats me…I feel like I am at a crossroads in my life, getting ready for something spectacular or maybe I’m getting ready to die. Maybe its the fact that I am approaching first-time grandma-hood. I know I will definitely learn something from that!!!

On second thought, maybe it is just menopause. But, what am I going to learn about THAT? Learn not to buy tampons in BULK?

Stay tuned. I’ll keep you posted.
