Hard Work

June 21, 2009

Today a group of people volunteered to clean up

at a house.  The house has not been lived in by

a family for 10 years.  A single man has been there

for a year.  He left a bed in one room that was

topped with a soft comforter.  He said this was

the custom of his country for new people in

a home.  Other people brought in items

for a pantry shower.  The items on the kitchen

shelf warmed up the kitchen even though the

door hid their woth.  Love and joy cannot

be measured. 

Hard work is pure joy.  I trimmed shrubbery

that made me think I was part of revealing

a secret garden.  Red roses revealed a sweet

aroma.  Their silky petals held on strong to the

vine despite the tap, tap, tap of the raindrops.

When the work day ended, my soul was cleansed.

If only everyone worked so hard.  Their soul

would be clean.  Their heart would be full.

Their hands would be strong.  Is this what

health is about?

Save AS Sight!

June 17, 2009

I just had amazing news about Katherine! This adorable 6 year old, who is my grandaughter, had surgery on her eye at Columbia Presbyterian by Dr. Kane today. She woke up with a clear plastic shield. This was soooo much better than the dark patch she previously endured! We hope that her sight is preserved. Childhood glaucoma robbed my half-brother of his eye-sight, but not his heart sight. This was in the 1940′s. He was diagnosed at the Mayo Clinic. Thanks to research and modern medicine, Katherine may have a clear view of her world today and tomorrow!

Otherwise, I worked on my first paper for my doctoral class. I have spent two weeks reading and tossing out material that I don’t think pertains to my paper. All night long. Lionel Ritchie made it sound like so much fun.

I am ready to Save today with thanksgiving. Yes, Save As Sight!

SAVE AS

June 16, 2009

Reaching out to the community in a health ministry demands a hearty hello! I hope to always save this joy in my heart. Daily the news reports increasing job losses. A health concern is the loss of insurance. A parish nurse can fill the gap of care by providing blood pressure screening and health care guidance. What a blessing a Parish Nurse can be at all times!  Save as a healthy heart!

Hello world!
