Scripture
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. Philippians 2:3-4
The Observant Part
I have a 92 year old friend who lives in an assisted care facility. She is finding it more and more difficult to muster the energy to perform daily tasks. I learned today that her granddaughter from out of town is getting married on Saturday - at the assisted care facility.
The Journey Part
Many brides dream and plan for their wedding day for years. They dream of the colors, the dress, the reception, the songs, and every detail that will make the day perfect. Parks, country chapels, cathedrals, banquet halls, even backyards become part of these dreams. But an assisted living facility? I've seen humility. I've seen valuing others. I've seen putting aside selfish interests and I like it.
