Be grateful for "tender mercies of The Lord"

Heavenly father has special ways of helping us throughout the day.

My Day:
Today was a school intensive day. After school, I had a preceptorship with a hematologist oncologist. Tired and hungry I went to the gym to work out before going home. I strapped on my swim trunks and went out to the pool to swim laps.

The Tender Mercy:
As I opened the door, the site I saw made me so happy inside! I saw a little boy with a familiar face walking into the kiddie pool with his beautiful mother behind him. Yes, it was my son and wife. I greeted them with a hug and a kiss and a warm heart. I smiled as we laughed and played in the water. Jackson put on my goggles and asked to swim. He swam in between Rachel and I as we were in the deep pool. I actually got a video of it today.

I believe it is important to look for, and be grateful for, the tender Mercies of the Lord. I believe He gives us small reminders on a daily basis, that He loves us. I know that it is important to be grateful for these small moments in our day. If we can be still enough, and recognize these tender mercies, I believe we will have a happy heart and be able to get through each day a little more successfully. We need to remember that the Lord loves us and find the ways that He has shown us.

Sincerely,

Dr. Mike
