Our happenings

Hello all! I hope y'all are having a fabulous first week of May! Lee is enjoying working in Conroe West. He has a great field training officer (FTO) and a great schedule (7-4 sun-thur)! He's getting a lot of experience in various   Trooper things such as: getting free coffee at Starbucks every morning, driving 70mph on the feeder road, getting free or discounted lunches, and the respect and thanks of the citizens of his area. He had a really neat experience yesterday. A random lady came up to him while he was standing outside of CVS. She asked if she could touch him, which of course he was wary about initially but after "guarding" himself (which means he turned his gun away from her) he allowed it. She put her hand on his shoulder and asked if she could pray over him. He said yes and she asked God to watch over him and his fellow troopers and keep them safe. Then she thanked him for his service and went on her way. WOW! Lee was blown away and very touched by this experience! This lady will probably never know how much this meant to Lee but it sure did make his day! Its awesome to see followers of God minister to each other. School is winding down for me. Only 3 more tests till the end of the semester. I've been in nursing school a year already which is hard to wrap my head around! I remember how nervous I was to even talk to my first patient! I have come a long way but I still have quite a ways to go. Being in the hospital is no fun for sure! Its my hope and prayer to bring my patients joy and the love of Christ! A patient told me recently what a difference it makes to be greeted with a smile and laughter rather than a sour-face and grumpy attitude. One's attitude really does set the tone of the day! Let's make it a joyful one :) 


Ecclesiastes 9:10 - Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might... 


1 Corinthians 10:31 - So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God!
