Today we shared for Praise Thursday two powerful devotionals from Our Daily Bread. One talking about the power of storytelling and how humans are connected by the need for a story — read more on it here.
The second devotional was about the story of the “smiling Jesus”, talking about the joy that Jesus had and the joy He can bring to you. Read it here!

Today we shared more about ‘Stay Safe with Big Blue’ for Who Knew Wednesday and how you can win some sweet prizes from WNZR! Read
more about it by clicking here.
We also shared more Natural Remedies and First Aid from the Who Knew book.
Here’s the tips:
You put a Band-Aid on your finger to cover up a scratch, but you still have to go through your day full of hand-washing, child-bathing, and dishes-doing. To keep the bandage dry while you work, cover it with a non-inflated balloon–any color will do!
To remove hard calluses from your feet, try this old-fashioned but effective remedy: Grind a few aspirin tablets into a paste with equal parts lemon juice and water. Apply it to the calluses, then wrap your feet in a hot towel, cover in plastic bags, and stay off your feet for 30 minutes. When you unwrap your feet, the calluses will be soft and ready to be filled off with a nail file or pumice stone.
Believe it or not, meat tenderizer works wonders on all sorts of stings–bee, wasp, even jellyfish. That’s because it contains papain, which helps break down the proteins in venom. Make a paste with the tenderizer by adding a few drops of water at a time, then rub on the affected area.

Here are today’s tips from the Who Knew? book:
Toothpaste is a great household helper and it even comes in handy with burns. If you sustained a minor burn, cover it with white non-gel toothpaste to ease the pain and help it heal.
You can also soothe and help heal minor bruises and scrapes by using the inside of a banana peel to gently rub the injury. Treat as fast as possible to reduce bruising.
The ancient Egyptians relied on honey for cuts and burns long before antibiotics were around. Besides offering a soothing protective layer over minor wounds, the honey provides a natural antibiotic. Put a layer of pure honey on before a bandage.
Here’s a trick for splinters. Use vegetable oil! It softens the skin and helps the offending piece of wood slide back out. You can also put a drop of white glue over the splinter, let it dry, and then peel off the dried glue. The splinter will stick to the glue and come right out.
