It's quiet here in Dad's hospice room.  Dad is resting comfortably, and there's not been much change in his condition.  I thought I would share a couple of pictures of his surroundings here at Nathan Adelson.  It is quite beautiful.

The scene above is was taken from the patio just outside dad's room.  This morning when I opened the blinds on the doors the sunshine lit up the room, and you could see so many plants and flowers just glistening in the early morning sun.

There are walking trails and water features throughout the facility.  Dad would love it.  He loves God's creation, and always said that it was one of the things that demonstrated his love for us.  Such great beauty lavished on us all.

. . .walk out into the fields and look at the wildflowers...have you ever seen color and design quite like it? If God gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers-most of which are never even seen-don't you think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you?

~ Matthew 6:27-30 from "The Message"

Dad, we are praying for you today.  Praying for you to have peace.  Peace that comes from knowing you are secure in your faith in Christ and peace in a job well done here in this life.
