Today I took my mom to the doctor for a check-up. Before she went, she wrote down the list of things that she wanted to discuss. My dad jokingly (or not so much) said to make sure to keep the list so he can use it next time he has to go. Her doctor was super patient and listened to everything she said. He made suggestions for some of the things that are bothering her. He told her that overall he thinks she is pretty healthy. That in itself made her feel better. Listening to their conversation and trying to put myself in her position really helped me to empathize. It also gave me a better understanding of how to be of more help. I could see some of the things that I should be doing differently. I was grateful for this new insight and praying for God’s grace so I can actually DO the things I know I need to improve upon.

I Found God today in a good check-up for my mom and a new awareness of myself.
