Dear God,

Thank you for your compassionate help.  I write this days after this date because I fell so ill on this day I had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital.  I was so dehydrated my blood was thick.  They had to work and work to do my blood work.

You have given each of us special, unique gifts so we can take care of each other.  Inside us you planted talents, skills, desires, helps and very special ways to bless one another.  As I lay sick on the floor in my home, there were those who came to my home and placed me on a stretcher and drove me to the hospital.  Inside the ambulance they were tender and caring.  At the hospital there were those who took me from the stretcher and placed me on the hospital bed.  They took my vitals, gave me fluids, took me to radiology, helped me to the bathroom, cleaned me up, fed me water and gave me meds in an IV.  They tended to my every need as I lay too sick to take care of my own.

As my daughter drove me home hours later, I gave thanks for your work and the work of all who were and are your hands and feet, your love and kind mercy, and your mouthpiece and communicator.  What more could we want?

Bless you,
Redeeming God,
for all
your do
for your children.
Thank you
especially for
your compassion
and love.
We would
be bereft
without you.

Love, Andrea
