Erin's Good Shepherd Routine

My days go like this: wake, shower, breakfast, hospital, lunch, rest, ______, dinner, sleep. The blank could be any number of things, from going back to the hospital to shopping to church services to a rousing game of Indian Uno, where we basically throw cards at each other until it is apparent that one of us is victorious. I have never won a game.

I think about you often. Probably everyday I start to think about home, wonder what I'd be doing if I'd just gotten a summer job, stayed home, rented old movies. I miss America. But then, almost immediately, I remember why I'm here and how good it is.


Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
1 Cor 15:58 (NIV)
