Matthew 25:35-36

I have been thinking a lot lately about Matthew 25:35-36, "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." After being in the hospital for six days, I can tell you that I was all of those things: hungry, thirsty, a stranger, in need of clothes and a shower, sick, and in a form of prison tethered to an IV machine and limited to one floor of the hospital to walk. 

I will never forget those who cared for me and those who visited me. Conversely I will also never forget those who didn't visit me because they had better things to do. Well, I should dwell on that because it will just make me bitter. I can say that the people who cared for me have a very special place in my heart for I was the least of these and they took care of me as if I were someone of great importance. 

Thank you all for your prayers and such. Have a wonderful weekend.
