My Life's Lesson...

 

As I stand firm in my faith, I would like to share with you a "Life's Lesson" I recently learned...The lesson is that The Holy Spirit is with me moment to moment I live, that I have prayer as my communication to Him, that any and all problems that may and will come my way can be and will be handled by Him if I will only ask, when He leaves I will go with Him, and that He and I will pity those left here in the tribulation...It is my prayer that you will stay connected to Him; for this is our blessing...

You are the greatest star that shines from heaven up above!

Thank you for helping out a family that lost a loved one. You gave your greatest gift, words of encouragement and care. That meant a lot to me and the family too! Your prayers brought us through. God will reward you with the greatest gift of all, your hearts' desire.

I felt like a movie star that was on tv, when I was reading the poem that you sent especially for me. I feel like I am destined for great wealth and success in the future. Thank god for you giving me the confidence to believe that I could do it, you will never know how much that means me. You are a true friend

REPLY to: Rene

Joy comes with serving God and showing mercy and compassion to others...My prayers are with you and the family and friends of this dear person...

God gave you your gift, and He will reward you for every effort you make to serve others with your gift...

Blessings...Juanita Pittman-Brown

Love, Rene

Hi Nita,

I have some news to share with you about the patient that we were talking about in C7. He passed away on Thursday, July, 10, 2008. His wife has asked me to come and sing at his memorial services on Monday, July 13, 2008 @ 11:00am. The services will be held @ McCormick United Methodist Church, 200 W. Gold Street, Mccormick, SC. Would you like to go with me on that day? I would love to have you there for emotional support! I know you are very busy and may 'not" be available on that day. If you can "not" attend, would you please write an inspirational message for the bereaved family about sorrow, etc.? Please email me asap: lalinkwa@aol.com

It is such an honor that she would choose me to sing at such a important event. As you know, I have been wanting to showcase my singing ability for a long time. But unfortunately something would always get in the way. I'm sorry that I could not make it to the tv station when you invited me. I have missed out on a lot of opportunities in the past, but I feel that this is the lords' will. He has made it possible for me to be able to go. I'm going to step out on faith. Keep me in your prayers!

I read the article in the newspaper today and thought what a neat idea to establish ACT . I currently work in a nursing home and I see how this could be so beneficial to our residents . I see so many residents who have no family no visitors and are longing for a little love attention and social companionship . I have several residents on my umit who I've kinda taken under my wing and remember them on their birthday or grandparent's day . This would be such a great plan to interact with local schools and getting children and teens involved. I would like to be able to assist if my schedule permits . Sincerely, Sharon Cooke

REPLY to: Sharon

Thank you for coming to my site...I had spoken to Bobbie Hansen today, and she mentioned your name to me, I believe...It is wonderful that you are interested, and I look forward to meeting you...Your are so right -- There is a given in the equation of Bobbie's dream in that "LOVE IS NEVER WRONG", and how we find ways to share love is always right...The connection between wisdom and innocence, life experience and young ideas, dreams and visions of the past intermingle to create a painting of wholeness for all...I am reminded that every dream begins with a thought, and every step is one step closer to one's dream...

Blessings...Juanita Pittman-Brown

Ms Juanita Pittman-Brown June 17, Wednesday, 2008 in Greenwood in McDONALDS You gave my husband directions to Oconee State Park. You later came over with a map which you had drawn out on your card. We told you we have been married almost 36 years. The necklace I had on; you thought was an angel, instead it was a palm tree. My mother collected angels while she was here with us. But now she is well, young, and beautiful. She's now at her heavenly home. She collected many angels and I have passed some on to people who need hope; but mostly they need GOD. I told my husband it was GOD's will for us to meet you that day. Thank you again for your help and I thank GOD for that moment. I have a collection of inspirational books. I will be contacting you in the very near future to purchase your books. FOR THE LOVE OF JESUS: Peggy Fralix

REPLY to Peggy Fralix: Peggy, thank you very much for coming to my Guest Book...I am blessed...Thank you for remembering me and sharing with me about your mother...I cerainly do remember you and your lovely necklace (palm tree)which I thought was an angel...I remember you and your husband and your sweet spirits...It was a blessing to meet both of you...I hope you and your husband enjoyed your trip to Oconee State Park and that you found your way there easily...

I believe too that it was God's will that we met...I always am open to God's leading and make every effort to follow His lead...You both were a sweet surprise for me...A quote I wrote you may enjoy, "Detours sometimes bring the sweetest surprises"...

What lovely memories you have of your mother...Too, it is wonderful that you have passed them on to people in need...Sometimes angels hold people until they find God...Also, you are so right that people need God...

I am placing here some things that I hope bless you richly...They are in reference to your mother and her love of angels and her goodness...Another quote you may enjoy is "Angels bear the burdens of those who have no wings"...

Joy in the Moment Plan that as we may Each and every day To partake of the future to come With the next rise of the sun… Would it not serve us well As we find joy in the moment -- In the moment that we share A cup of coffee -- Ride the roller-coaster With a child -- Watch the lines In the face of an elder Turn into waves of happiness Across the brow -- Feel the fingers of a child wrap Around your hand -- Hear the echo of a term Of endearment -- Walk a mile on the beach With a friend -- Wipe away a tear Created by happiness -- Stop to share A word with a homeless person Take a nap and awaken To the smile of your lover --… What more could we ask of life Than to find joy in the moment As if it were our last -- For yet today will become Our past...©

A Walk With Mother

Mother now walks Where roses bloom And lilies sway with ease -- She rest in the morn And sits in the evening breeze -- She shares heavenly space With angels all about As she awaits our coming in faith Forever free of doubt -- She strolls along Golden thorough-fares And sees the deepest blue -- She is free of cares And everything is new -- Her moments now are timeless For now she lives above -- Where she is ever-present In God’s perfect love -- She endures no human suffering And her bed is one of ease -- She is now eternal and dwells With God whom she did highly please -- She has no fear or dread No human failure or earthly pain For now everything she knows Is perfect Holy gain -- Mother now walks Where roses bloom And lilies sway with ease -- She rest in the morn And sits in the evening breeze…

Thank you for the poem you wrote about me, while I was very sick and in the hospital in April, 2008. Wanted to let you know I am doing much better now and will be going back to the Dr. this coming Friday. Hoping he will let me go back to work. It was a blessing to have met you and just wanted to thank you for your prayers and kind words. Christopher (Chris) Long

REPLY to: Chris (Chris, If you would like, you may view my Articles Page and you will see the poem and story I wrote about you...It is entitled "My Child's Face")

It is a true joy to hear from you...Thank you for sharing your kind words with me...I am thrilled that you are getting better with each new day...I have been praying for you and will continue to pray for you...You and your mother blessed me more than words can say...Oh the awesome wonder of God's amazing gifts...

Chris, I would like to share with you that I had shared your poem with a young woman who is an instuctor at Piedmont Technical College...She worked previously with me at Self, and I have known her around 16 years...She did not know who the poem was about, but she did so appreciate the poem and why I wrote it...From the poem, I was asked by Lisa to be the Guest Speaker at the Pinning Ceremony at Piedmont Technical College this month...She asked that I write about The Journey in Nursing...This was such a great blessing for me to be able to share some things I have learned over my 33 years of nursing to help younger nurses who are beginnig their careers...Thank you for being a part of life...

I will add what I shared with the new nurses below...The poem would not have been written nor would I have had the opportunity to share my thoughts on nursing with the new graduates without you and your mother...Please do share this with you mother...You both richly blessed my life...Please do keep in touch and let me know how you are doing...May God walk with you daily...Blessings...Juanita Pittman-Brown

(This story is posted on my site with www.faithwriters.com) National Nurses Week 2008 by Juanita Brown 05/24/08

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NATIONAL NURSES WEEK

May 6 – 12, 2008

National Nurses Week

At the invitation of

Lisa B. Speach, RN, MSN, FNP,

I spoke at the Pinning Ceremony for the new Nurses at Piedmont Technical College in Greenwood, S.C., on May 7, 2008...

This was such a great honor and brought great joy to my soul…It gave me an opportunity to share with the new nurses and others in attendance my thoughts on the journey of nursing...

I would like to share with you

the thoughts I shared with the new nurses on the journey of nursing

The Journey of Nursing

EDUCATION

Remember that learning is an on-going process throughout a nursing career

Keep your skills up to date for you cannot give what you do not have

Use the tools given to you in your education for they often will direct and protect when difficulties arise

Remember that training takes over when uncertainty enters in

OTHERS

Respect and protect the rights of others

Remember that but for the grace of God the patient or their significant others could be you and will be you in time

Accept others without judgment

Listen to others, consider their thoughts, decide for yourself, and hold yourself accountable for the choices you make

Remember that you will become the model for others to follow

Keep compassion, understanding, and love for others as tender treasures for they will found you when your may flounder

Remember that but for the grace of God the patient or their significant others could be you and will be you in time

Know yourself, accept others, strive for perfection even though it is unattainable for if you do not try your goals are not high enough

Allow others space when they are smiling or when they are crying for respect and freedom will allow them to grow and you to be an accepting and comforting source for those in need

SELF

Maintain a positive attitude and add not to negativity

Listen with your heart

Speak with consideration and kindness

Nurture your spirit for you cannot give what you do not have

Keep yourself physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy for to serve in wholeness requires a whole you

Keep your life simple

Learn who you are and hold yourself to the highest standards

Remember that you can observe change, accept change, and create change

Remember that everyday is not only an opportunity but also an obligation to live with integrity, honesty, and compassion

Embrace change as you would a friend

Be vigilant and truthful

Hold yourself to the highest standards

Use silence to your advantage for wisdom needs time to think

WORK

Realize that any system in which you work may not be perfect, but it is the one you have -- You may not be able to make it perfect, but you can be a part of it and make it the best that it can be

Lead with integrity and follow with respect

Respect those in authority even if you may not agree and be supportive of their role and direction

Give your very best each day you are on duty for it is the foundation of your tomorrow

Maintain a professional demeanor at all times

Realize that a smile is a small but powerful tool

Avoid gossip for it is undermining and a waste of the gift of time

Remember that at the end of your career that you would like to shine as brightly as you do on the first day you step into the arena of life

Be a positive force at every opportunity and refrain from negativity for the light of who you are will make the world a brighter place

Remember that team-work is kind collaboration

Remember that everyone be they patient, staff, administration, or any others you encounter have had a different journey than you and are who they are just as you are who you are -- Allow them to be themselves for then you will find freedom in being you

Remember that one day you will be on the other side of professional care and that you would like then to receive what you have given

Remember that there are all levels of abilities and capabilities in nursing and to be understanding and accepting of others -- help others grow and be supportive for there are none who have arrived at perfection, but we can all travel the road together and help each other along the way

Keep in mind that nursing is a life-long career often and you want to be as proud to be a nurse at the end as you are at the beginning

Help the younger nurses who cross your path for once you were in their shoes – respect those who have made nursing a career for they have served, survived and given of their lives

©

If you are a nurse, may you blessed; if you have helped a nurse become a nurse, may you be blessed; if you are the recipient of a nurse's care, may you be blessed...

Hello, Juanita I met you at the mall a couple weeks ago. i finally have access to a computer. remember we talked about Jesus. Well things are still looking bad in the flesh, but I am still holding on. I know God will what his words say. Anyway I know God is blessing you. Have a blessed god inspried day.

REPLY: To Dedric

I certainly do remember you...It is wonderful to hear from you...What we endure in the flesh and suffer in the spirit will all be returned to us if we will remain faithful and persevere...May you continue on through the valley; for eventually, you will see the mountain-top...I do understand; I have walked the valley, and I am familiar with the struggles in the flesh...

I encourage you to read Psalms 32:8...There will come a season when the perils of the flesh will pass, and God will reveal to you the plan that you now cannot see...Keep in mind, as I remind myself, "the greater the trial; the greater the blessing"...

Blessings always...Juanita
