Consider the Lilies...

Quick Update to my peeps: I accepted a job offer with Lockheed Martin in Boulder, CO starting in the not-too-distant future. So as my eastern excursion comes to a close, I've reflected upon some of the things I've learned while in this beautiful part of the country. There are spiritual giants living in Binghamton NY. People that give unselfishly of their time, talents and everything with which they have been blessed to comfort and give aide to others.

Yesterday I was privileged to experience the wonders of modern medicine in the form of a technologically modified garden hose. Jamming this pricey contraption down my esophagus yielded no buried treasure or other abnormalities which in one way is comforting to know. A good sister in the ward drove me to and from the hospital, wrote down the doctor's diagnosis, and made sure I had food to eat at home. This and many other acts of genuine kindness have taught me that the Lord is truly mindful of the needs of His children and that through the promptings of the Holy Spirit, each of us can help build the kingdom of God. His tender mercies are all around us once we awaken our spiritual eyes to behold and receive them.
