Senior Citizens!

I have to be honest with you. I have been kind of hard on senior citizens during my life. They always drove too slow. Pull out in front of you on the road. Took too long at the checkout at the grocery store, etc, etc!

GOD has been working on me about this! During the last four years, from when I rededicated my life to Jesus Christ, He has been working on me. I have been slowly made aware of my misconception about them. I have come to realize that they are some of the sweetest and most appreciative people there are!

Then GOD did the ultimate thing to me, regarding seniors. I am now volunteering at our local hospital. I work at the front desk as a greeter. People that come in, I help direct them, or show them to their destination. My main portion of the job is to take the seniors up to the cardiac re-hab facility. I push them in wheel chairs. I help them with their walkers, their oxygen tanks, whatever they need help with. This is my absolute favorite part of the job. I love these people that go up to re-hab. The most thankful, most appreciative, kind and funny people. They are like a close knit family up there. I love being apart of it. I love being able to help them out. I love being there for them. I thank GOD for these seniors everyday! Praise GOD for this position at the hospital!
