Since October’s come and gone, I figured it was appropriate to share these beautiful lyrics from Barry Manilow’s song When October Goes; lyrics by the great Johnny Mercer. The picture below is from earlier this year. And when October goesThe snow begins to flyAbove the smokey roofsI watch the planes go by The children running… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
Some of you will remember Cher’s hit song If I Could Turn Back Time. Well, tomorrow at 2 a.m. you can control the time by turning your clocks BACK one hour to Standard Time (Eastern Standard for me). According to this study from Stanford Medicine, we would be healthier if we STAYED on Standard Time.… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
This series of quotes from Philippians comes to an end with more advice for We The People. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if the... mehr auf joyreturns.com
This weekend’s posts contain advice Paul wrote to the Philippians, however, the same advice is true for We The People. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
Yes, while our main citizenship is in heaven, We The People, are to be good stewards of this country. Heavenly citizenship is a joy, and so is living in the United States of America. God wanted this country to exist; otherwise, the Founding Fathers would have failed. While you wait in line to legally immigrate… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
What Paul tells us in this sentence can’t be repeated enough. We do not rejoice enough, if at all. Look to God, understand all that He is, and rejoice! He is in control, He has your back, and in the end, HE WINS! Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. Philippians 3:1 (NKJV) Bio: Michele Kearns is… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
Yesterday, I asked you to be like geese. Today, be lights. While visiting a cemetery recently, I looked up and took a photo of the sun breaking through the leaves. Then upon reading Philippians this week, I knew this photo was perfect for part of todays verses. Do all things without complaining and disputing,15 that you ma... mehr auf joyreturns.com
Today’s post from Philippians is about being like geese – flying as a team, getting to better weather. They all have the same mindset, unlike this divided country. So, think of others, be of one mind, and care for one another. Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
The Khan penthouse was exactly what you’d expect from a Mumbai man who had once been called “the conscience of Urdu letters” — now rebranded by society pages as a heritage intellectual. Persian rugs, an Italian espresso machine, and a faint whiff of nostalgia mixed with old paper and Davidoff. Aryan Khan, his only son, … ... mehr auf sumitajetley.wordpress.com
A month or so ago, I watched a YouTube video where the content creator suggested reading a book of the Bible every day for a month. The book he suggested was Philippians. Then about a week ago, I stumbled across a short by the late John MacArthur where he suggested the same thing. – read… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
WELCOME OCTOBER! There are three months left in this year. What will you do in these months that will give you a head start when 2026 arrives? First of all you need to determine what 2026 looks like regarding goals and accomplishments. Once you do that, then pack out an activity that will help you… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
This post is being published later than intended, thanks to days of intimacy with sinus meds, the Mark of Zorro (the mark of the Z) on my ankle, and playing hostess with the mostess at a local diner for four hours last weekend.

I did watch all of Charlie Kirk’s Memorial Service and have some thoughts running through my mind. However, I figured a light-hearted post was more appropriate since I still need to work out those posts. Google defines sensuous as 1: relating to or affecting the senses rather than the intellect. After Joe passed, I went… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
We sang this song at church last Sunday. Hopefully, it brings you comfort and joy. Here is the link to Aaron’s video.

This Bible explains what I want to happen at Charlie Kirk’s Memorial tomorrow. May everyone leave filled with the Holy Spirit more than ever before. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested[a] on&... mehr auf joyreturns.com
This poem comes from the book From The Best Loved Poems of the American People, which was part of my Mom’s book collection. I remember reading this book as a kid.

While I found movie quotes that can be used as encouragement for helping widows move forward with life, they were not appropriate for this weekend. This quote by Charles Spurgeon felt right since it feels as though we’ve been thrown around this week. 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me,let me hide myself in thee;let… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
I had another post scheduled for today. But with Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the post did not seem appropriate at this time. The assassination is a stark reminder of how WE THE PEOPLE are NOT united. Only God can unite us. I believe He will, for He is filled with love, grace, mercy, and healing. if… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
HAPPY NATIONAL AMPERSAND DAY Did anyone know that September 8th is always National Ampersand Day or did you, like me, learn something new? The & sign originates from a combination of the Latin letters “e” and “t,” which together mean “and.” And we know from School House Rock (Conjunction Junction) that “and” is a conjunction;…... mehr auf joyreturns.com
Today’s movie quote is another reason why widows should not focus on the past. It is from the movie Ratatouille. Whoever thought you could learn a life lesson from a rat who is trying to become a chef? “If you focus on what you left behind, you will never be able to see what lies… ... mehr auf joyreturns.com
Today’s wisdom comes from movie quotes. You might find uplifting movie quotes all month. However, I did not find enough uplifting ones – yet.

Halloween …. Eine Ausrede, sich als halbstarker Erwachsener oder Möchte-gern-Junggebliebener mal wieder gänzlich daneben benehmen zu dürfen. Reine Geldmache.

“Experience and success don’t give you easy passage through the middle space of struggle. They only grant you a little grace, a grace that whispers, ‘This is part of the process.

from within Learning to Trust Will Make Us Happy “…We find ourselves torn by confusion, by conflict, by affirmation and denial, by emotion congested by fear, congealed by pride.

Jedes Jahr das Gleiche: Noch kein Geschenk?! Wenige Tage vor Weihnachten werden auf den letzten Drücker die restlichen Geschenke gekauft.

Travis walks in to worship service at your church for the first time.
