With Thankgiving

My last post was all a jumble of thoughts and confusion.  I’ve since then experienced peace about many aspects of my Christian walk and beliefs.  As He always does, the Lord tenderly (sometimes not so tenderly!) showed me truth through the pages of His word and through worship.  I am not going to be part of doctrinal dog fights.  I believe in God the Father.

Jeremiah 8:22 In a long, drawn-out saga detailed below, I’ve seen first-hand many of the problems in our current medical system.  Government intervention would do absolutely nothing to fix the universal problem created by poor management and by employees who perform their jobs ineptly…and would instead make them worse!  I mailed the letter you see below to the president of the medical center where I had the tests done.  Perhaps it will ruffle some feathers.  Or perhaps not.  My prayer is that it will lead to improved procedures there … Continue reading And now for some feather ruffling…
