John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." My peace is in the Lord. As you see from this verse - He offers HIS peace, not the kind of peace on earth, that we don't and never will have. We can not even be at peace with our neighbors, let alone those in other countries. The peace we get from Jesus is a deep, calm peace that lets you know that no matter what occurs in this life - we have a better life, a peaceful life ahead. So, you don't need to worry or be afraid, your future with God is secure through the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ.
Get Fit
But while you are here... I find that I am more relaxed and happier when I exercise on a regular basis. They tell us that the oxygen and blood that pump through your body (like it did when you played as a child) gives you a sense of power and happiness, strength and ability. So, ask for equipment or memberships or even a new workout outfit to go to the gym in. Remember after the holidays they bury us in commercials for reorganization and exercising!!!
On this day
2002 - It was the winter sports semester at high school and Nicole gave up volley ball for bowling. She did well at everything she played but bowling was a more social event then the pounding you got at volley ball. So on the way home I picked her up at the bowling alley, dropped her at her car so she could go to church (youth group) and I went to the high school for the Mom and Dad club. Good thing I had exercised that morning - did the step exercises (I keep track of that too).OCD for sure.
1812 - Peter Gaillard patented the power mower. Although I'm sure it had been improved on since then we can thank this guy! Right?
Zurich Switzerland
Name[edit]
In German, the city name is written Zürich, and pronounced [ˈtsyːrɪç] (
listen) in Swiss Standard German. In Zürich German, the local dialect of Swiss German, the name is pronounced without the final consonant, as Züri [ˈtsyri], although the adjective remains Zürcher(in) [ˈtsyrxər(ɪn)]. The city is called Zurich [zyʁik] in French, Zurigo [dzuˈriːɡo] in Italian, and Turitg [tuˈritɕ] in Romansh.

The city is called Zurich [zyʁik] in French, Zurigo [dzuˈriːɡo] in Italian, and Turitg [tuˈritɕ] in Romansh.
In English, the name used to be written as Zurich, without the umlaut. Even so, standard English practice for German calques is to either preserve the umlaut or replace it with the base letter followed by e (i.e. Zuerich). It is pronounced /ˈzjʊərɪk/ ZEWR-ik, and more recently sometimes also with /ts/, as in German.[17]
The earliest known form of the city's name is Turicum, attested on a tombstone of the late 2nd century AD in the form STA(tio) TURICEN(sis) ("Turicum tax post"). The name is interpreted as a derivation from a given name, possibly Gaulish personal name Tūros, for a reconstructed native form of the toponym of *Turīcon.[18] The Latin stress on the long vowel of the Gaulish name, [tʊˈriːkõː], was lost in German [ˈtsyːrɪç] but is preserved in Italian [dzuˈriːɡo] and in Romansh [tuˈritɕ]. The first development towards its later, Germanic form is attested as early as the 6th century with the form Ziurichi. From the 9th century onward, the name is established in an Old High German form Zuri(c)h (857 in villa Zurih, 924 in Zurich curtem, 1416 Zürich Stadt).[19] In the early modern period, the name became associated with the name of the Tigurini, and the name Tigurum rather than the historical Turicum is sometimes encountered in Modern Latin contexts.[20] What's in a name you say? Alot.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday to Tamara and Happy Anniversary
