Linny:
Pam, hope you don't mind my answering here but Arion, Pam meant she only gets 2 or 3 days off with Samson every month.

Hi Pam,
I thank God for the heart He has put in you. It is not a job that I could do.

Hey Pam,
So good to hear from you. Lord bless you for being able to do the job you do. I know I could never do it long term. You have been missed and have been in our prayers and will continue to be.
Blesssing,
Suzie

Hey Pam
Sampson has a wonderful caring wife in you. What an emotional tower of strength you have to be for him.
I worked in Hospice for a short while. I loved it. I volunteered to work at the old age home too. I was so moved that I still think that a visit to both institutions should be on the school curricular.
My experience showed me that the impatient beauty addicted world outside only seems to display the young and beautiful not the crippled, aged, frail or ugly as the world would see them. I had to encounter the differences in perspectives that were changed by the hardship of loosing worldly appeal. Some do it gracefully and others resentfully.
I remember a woman who was so angry and so hostile. She had terminal cancer, no hair and the most doting and attentive husband. Jack, did not want to die and was barely skin and bone going black and blue around his temples and eye sockets. He asked me to pray for him and I was inspired to tell him forthrightly to trust Jesus though he may see a bottomless black pit in front of him. He died that night. The next morning I felt so happy for him.
After that I was asked to leave because my presence was interfering with the Pastor who’s was visiting the patients and I was seen to be interfering.
I know that God has you where He wants you in a ministry of care giving and gentleness of His Spirit. Perhaps when you feel weary at all the sickness surrounding you, just know you are His Love in action and only His Spirit sustains you or anyone who He has appointed to experience frailty, age, pain and suffering.
Thank you for your post. :)
