Leftovers!

“Now gather the leftovers,” Jesus told His disciples, “so that nothing is wasted.”
—John 6:12


What is your favorite Thanksgiving leftover?

Americans consumed approximately 48,000,000 turkeys or approximately 720,000,000 pounds of turkey meat this last weekend. Add to this: the pumpkin pies, cranberries, stuffing, sweet potatoes and you get LEFTOVERS.

Thanks-living!

Always give thanks for everything to our God and Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
—Ephesians 5:20

Do you have a thankful heart?

I like to think I do but I must confess my heart, at times, is more "busy" than thankful.

Gratitude is the root of thankfulness and reflection is the root of gratitude. "Busy" hearts don’t take time to reflect; consequently I often miss out on thankfulness. Said differently: "If you pause to think, you will have cause to thank!"

Living the Dream!

No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.
—1 Corinthians 2:9


What is your dream?

What is your vision for your family, your life, your career, your unit, your clinic, your patients? You know the answer to each of these questions. You can describe the values, the relationships, the experiences you seek for each of them.
