How prepared are you for Advent?

Do get spiritually prepared for Christmas too, just like you would while planning for clothes and gifts.

I thought I should share this excepts with you.

As we prepare for Christmas, read this:

“Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap.

For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man.”

I love those lines of the scripture.

Are you vigilant and prepared for the lord’s coming?

Just like you shop for clothes, gifts, food stuffs, and eager to visit people, are you making some spiritual preparation for Christmas?

Do not be caught off guard.

.
.

When you feel overwhelmed,

Pause.

Then, think about the bigger picture.
.

Do not feel trapped when you struggle or have doubts.

Pause.

Thank God for the gift of Life.

In all these, be grateful knowing it can open further doors.
.
.

Dear God, may we hear your voice.
Open our hearts.
May we be attentive to You🙏🏽

Have a wonderful Advent season 李

Remembrance Sunday 2021

we remember all they have done for our country and us.

Hope you were in church today?

The scripture reminds us today that all things will pass away except God’s words.

It is important that we are not overly attached to material things as all will pass away.

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.” Mark 13:31.

Truth is, there will be temporary satisfactions.

What happens after that?
.
.
It was remembrance Sunday today.

We prayed for all the past heros.

For all those who lost their lives during the world war.

We pray for all those who have lost their lives globally while rendering selfless service to their country.

I will like to remind us to use this month of November to pray endlessly for our past loved ones.

Are you praying enough for them?

If praying for them reduces their suffering, how would you rate yourself?

Are their many people praying for them or just a few of you?

Pray for them like it is down to your prayers alone 🙏🏽


May all departed souls and the souls of departed Legionaries through the mercy of God rest in peace and rise again in glory.

Amen.

There is time for everything under the earth 🌎

Dear God, grant that we make good use of our time on earth 🙏🏽

Live a good life

May your conscience never slumber.

The Pain of Brachytherapy

What you need to know about brachytherapy

I am pleased to write a health related content. It’s been a while and I have missed it.


I got to know about brachytherapy for the very first time last year.

Brachytherapy is a method of delivering radioactive treatment internally to a cancer site to maximize chances of cure.

Simply say, the introduction of treatment to the cancer in a person to increase cure rate.

It can be done alone or as a part of other treatment.


There are two types of Brachytherapy:


– High dose rate (HDR) : This can be done with the aid of a plastic Catheter inserted under general or spinal anaesthesia via the perineum to the prostate or through the vagina for delivering radioactive substances.


– Low dose rate (LDR): In this, a permanent implant is placed and only for prostate cancer.

Preparation


-Patient should be admitted a day before the surgery for enema administration


– Nil by mouth from midnight.

After care


– CT and MRI scans will be carried out.
– Patient is nursed lying flat as the implant is in place.
– Strong analgesics like morphine and the likes are administered.
– Heads can be raised during feeding only.

Removal of catheter


– When removed, patient is monitored to ensure urine is passed freely prior to discharge.

I hope this gives you an idea of what brachytherapy is and what is involved.

On one occasion, the patient was very dependent on morphine and would scream in pain most of the time.

It is truly hard to see someone in pain all the time. However, I haven’t seen that much morphine given in a short while.

The Dr had to intervene and speak with the patient regarding so much morphine given and the risks. The patient still demanded for more.

Be True to Yourself

It is possible that certain things happens in you life for a reason.

At times, we tend to look back and wonder why we did certain things.

Do you seem to have a lot of things you wished you had done differently?

Do they bother you so much?


I want you to look at them differently this time.


I guess you were not somewhat senseless or crazy those times.

Has it occurred to you that it was possibly the best you could have done at those given times?

Did you have numerous options and intentionally chose the least of all?

If yes, why was that?

Did you do what was practically obtainable at that time?


I guess sometimes we need to be true to ourselves.

Pay attention to details regarding your past and present actions.


Do not wake up one day and wanna regret your entire life based on your current situation.

The pasts cannot be changed.

Work on where you think you can do better in your current state.

Do not allow anybody’s opinion become your reality.

Appreciate your journey.

They are your story.

They are the reason you have come this far.

They make you unique.

Be grateful for the past, the present and what the future holds.

It could have been worse.

Thank God for the gift of life.

Focus on You

Treat yourself right. You can bring out the best in you.

The happiness you seek from others can be found inside you.

Focus on yourself.

Pay attention to yourself.

Set realistic goals.

If it’s a long term project, plan and give it time.

Know what can be achieved in a short time.

Do not allow other people’s progress or stories distract you.

If they must affect you, let them motivate you.

You are unique.

Each person is to serve a purpose.

Are you doing your best?

What advice would you give to yourself?

At times, it is beneficial for one to spare time just to think about themselves.

It can be regarding lifestyle, relationship, work, passions or anything you deem important to you.

Desist from getting carried away by analysing peoples lifestyles, choices and their process.

Why they are this and should do XYZ.

Simply focus on your growth or development.

There ought to be something in you that you can take to another level or do differently.

Do not see others and say “God when” but you are not paying attention to yourself.

What plans do you have? What have you done so far?

You are your number one fan.

Love yourself.

Treat yourself right.

Endeavour to maximise all your God given talents.

Do not waste them.

Know what you can do at any given time and act on it.

Spare time and think about yourself.

You will spot the difference when you make it a habit.

It is YOU to the world 🧡

When I first got to this garden I was a bit scared as I couldn’t tell if something was hiding under the plants and flowers. However, within minutes I completely forgot about it as I was lost in thought.

Aim for the best version of yourself 🧡
