Compass

NEWS states the compass.  North, East, West and South help us stay oriented to time and space.  The news of the ages tends to disorient us.  We hear of calamities contrasted with joyful events.  Making sense of this may lead to a mental head spin.  Exiting the nauseous head spin may cause us to one to regurgitate thus forcint one to face in a single direction.  Ah stability! in the middle of nausea, if that is rational? Will the stability be settled and perpetuated?  From when comes a settle stable mind set?  Where does one find a moral compass?  Our creator made directions,  Is it possible we should look to Him for stability? 

YOU're OK

Yes the last year has been more than OK.  It has been fantastic.  The simple things in life have remained simple.  I fortunately do not need assistance in the elimination areas of my body.  My plumbing works well.  A year I wondered if such would happen.  I have healed well from the robotic surgery for prostate cancer.  On the anniversary of my surgery as I wrote the date the pain of the surgery became fresh in my mind.  Since the event was a year ago I did not anticipate such feelings.  As much as I believe I can control my emotions, I found that remembering the pain although not markedly significant still was fresh.  Actually more fresh than I expected.  

A year ago many people were praying for me from many different countries.  I am grateful for the those who remembered me.  I am grateful for the outcome of the surgery.  I am reminded almost daily of the faithfulness of those who are in Christ.
