| John 3:20-21“Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.”

There’s something about fall that makes you want to create, and there’s nothing holding you back.
Take out your camera and snap some amazing fall foliage shots. Or paint or draw what you see.
Experiment with fall produce and see if you can cook up something amazing. Create your own Halloween costume.
Get creative this autumn. Have fun with all the colors, flavors, and celebrations!

Create – you know, it’s only in very recent years that I’ve even entertained the notion that there is a single creative bone in my body, and Autumn does seem to bring it out a bit. 
John invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the meal, his mother couldn’t help but notice how John and his roommate Julie looked at each other. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two and this only made her more curious. By the end of the evening she was convinced there was more between them than met the eye. Reading his mom’s thoughts, John volunteered, “I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you Julie and I are just roommates.”
About a week later, Julie went to John saying, “Ever since your mother came to dinner, I’ve been unable to find the silver gravy ladle. You don’t suppose she took it, do you?”
John said, “Well, I doubt it, but I’ll email her just to be sure.”
So he sat down and wrote: “Dear Mother, I’m not saying that you ‘did’ take the gravy ladle from my house, I’m not saying that you ‘did not’ take the gravy ladle but the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner. Love, John.”
The next day, John received a response from his mother that read:
“Dear Son, I’m not saying that you ‘do’ sleep with Julie, and I’m not saying that you ‘do not’ sleep with Julie. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom.”

Hahaha! Can’t fool mom!
Have an epic weekend!

Yeah, I confess, I’m a hugger. I can tell that bugs a lot of people though, so I don’t hug people unless it’s okay with them.
Ready for the solstice Monday? Officially Autumn, woo!
An older couple were walking on a beach when the husband tripped over a bottle and a genie popped out.
“You can each have one wish,” said the genie.
The wife made her wish first “I would like to travel around the world, with my husband,”. Suddenly there appeared in her hand two tickets for travel around the world.
Now it was the husbands turn, “Well” said the husband, with a naughty look on his face “I wish I can have a younger companion.” The words were barely out of his mouth when poof, he aged 20 years!
*****
With my luck, that’d be the genie I’d find. 
Have an awesome weekend!
Happy Birthday, Air Force!
Love, Vanessa

New American Standard Bible
We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
You are a quiet thinker. You like nothing better than an early fall morning when you’re alone with your thoughts and your coffee.
As each day gets colder, you can’t help but remember autumns past and reflect on your life a bit.
You love fall weather. A gray day is perfect for writing, reading, or just thinking… all activities you enjoy.
You like feeling warm and energized inside while the world is cold and quiet outside. It’s the perfect contrast for you to feel inspired.

Oh my goodness, yes! Yes!! And, even though I’ve never had a hazelnut latte, it sounds delicious!
Two men dressed in pilots’ uniforms walk up the aisle of the aircraft. Both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a guide dog, and the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane.
Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit the door closes, and the engines start up. The passengers begin glancing nervously around, searching for some kind of a sign that this is just a little practical joke. None is forthcoming.
The plane moves faster and faster down the runway, and the people sitting in the window seats realize they’re headed straight for the water at the edge of the airport property. Just as it begins to look as though the plane will plow straight into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin.
At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air. The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat into their magazines and books, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands.
Meanwhile, in the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, ‘You know, Bob, one of these days, they’re gonna scream a little too late.

I confess, I didn’t see that ending coming! 
Have a lovely weekend!
Of those whose lives were lost.
I will not forget.

You love to feel cozy and content. After a summer of fun, fall is the perfect time for you to kick back.
Autumn is when you calm down and turn inward. It’s the time of year that you start to slow down.
You take time to savor the season. You appreciate every falling leaf and every warm drink in your hand.
You sometimes wish it were fall all year. You try to make each moment last as long as possible.

I love Autumn! It’s my favorite season! Until March.
A very nervous first time crew member says to the skipper, “Do yachts like this sink very often?”
“Not too often,” replied the skipper. “Usually it’s only the once.”

It’s like parachuting … you only forget your parachute once.
Have a great weekend!
