In the Hospital...

Life is hard,  You could be just thinking you have a handle on everything and then just, boom its all kayotic.  All you can do is look around today and assess what you have today and use that and enjoy that and live day by day. Do plan but understand that plans are not life and you have to except what happens and re adjust every day. Dream but dream with today's reality in mind. Prioritise figure out what is really important in your life and focus on that. Life is short,. life is beautiful, and life is hard. I type this in the hospital room with my wife this time in the bed. Like that stupid song, what ever doesn't kill you makes you stronger...

God please give the strength today to be a patient with myself at work and be kind, loving and patient to my family. Thank you God for everything you have given me and my family. Please heal Jill from whatever it is going on. Help the doctors figure this out today!

Why Iona man? I am Progressive Christian. In fact I consider myself to be a Red Letter Christian. to understand what that means look up Tony Campolo's website and also read his books. I love scottish history and cultural, I'm really actually very little Scottish. There is a small island off the coast of Scotland, that has a monastery built by St. Columba. who was a missionary to the Scots in 563 A.D. The bravery and boldness exhibited by him and his 12 disciples to moves me.

Prayer, "God give me strength and boldness to except my failures and be strong and courageous."
