Saturday Breakfast Briefing

By Derek Davis

28th Mar 2020 | Local News

Did you know?

Isaac Newton calculated the world will end in 2060. Nostradamus predicted it to be the year 3786 or 3797.

The Islamic faith Qiyamah (the Day of Resurrection) is predicted "When immorality overtakes shamelessness and is perpetrated publicly," amongst other things.

And, according to The Bible, in Matt 24:36 : "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."

In the meantime, try to live every day as if it is your last, be kind, smile more and love more.

Movie quote of the day:

Riddle of the day:

What does every woman have that starts with a "V" and that she can use to get what she wants?

Previous Answer:

You play with it at night before bed. You can't be seen fiddling with it at work. You only let very, very special people touch it. What is it?

A smart phone of course


A moment of reflection, courtesy of Jane Gould:

From psalm 119:

Open my heart's eyes, that I may see

The wondrous blessings of creation.

I am a sojourner on earth; May I know myself also as a spiritual being.

My soul is consumed with an intense longing To be blessed and sustained by You, O Divine Lover.

May I not be a bearer of disharmony, one who is arrogant and greedy;

Teach me to stand firmwhen faced with injustice and oppression

To be fervent in my stance for truth!

Even though fears rise up, may my eye remain focused on You.
