Lynn Jones: Lessons we can learn in ICU

Sometimes life-changing, lessons are learned while enrolled in ICU.

Our greatest help in making decisions is found in God.

While honesty is a quality that is to be prized, we have no permission to wield honesty irresponsibly.

Instead, we find coping mechanisms. We put on thicker clothing and turn up the thermostat.

There was also Another who went to Bethlehem that first Christmas. God was at Bethlehem.

It was difficult that first Christmas, but God had a message for some shepherds and for us.

Time has a way of slipping by all of us without our noticing. We hear a lot about “non-renewable resources” these days.

In the book of the Bible that bears his name, James said that we should be “swift to hear, slow to speak.”

The greatest gift that He has given His people is the gift of new birth.

We often concentrate on things of little importance and do not see big, important things.
