A day with the family

After we went to Suzanne and Tim's party at noon, we brought food home for lunch. Nick and Jaklin stopped by to join us which was fun. While Ruth took a nap, Amy and I tried to solve various ED problems. She devised a few options for a five physician shift day while I finished reading, "If Disney Ran Your Hospital: 9 1/2 Things You Would Do Differently." I went and played outside with Ruth before Ben and Naomi brought home dinner from Cafe Express. We watched some of the NCAA Baseball tournament and saw Orlando beat the Cavs to advance to the NBA finals. I reread some of the Press Ganey Solutions Starter feeling some discouragement realizing that improving our scores will be a tough task. I had seen progress this week with my new project implemented and have been excited with a vision of success from the various effects made possible by the project. Still, there is a long ways to go for this project and my possible career in administration and management so I need to stay positive and enjoy what I am doing. This is the same philosophy I need for each shift.

Hebrews 1:9-12 "You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy." 10He also says, "In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 11They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. 12You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end."

These verses are a reminder of God's presence at the beginning of time and the fact that he will remain forever. I have found my life to be dissatisfied when there is no purpose, no goal to strive for. I have created new and lofty goals, but I am excited to have a passion for a goal now. I am most thankful for the highest goal in my life, to glorify Him. I want to remember that every day. Whether I am succeeding at home and/or work or if I feel discouraged, I want to make Christ my most prized goal.
