Prepare to Host

One of my teachers in ministry training said that a counselor should be a "hospitable host." This week I continued to prepare my practice for clients by purchasing insurance and by buying an ad.

Last week, I hung some pictures in the office, including some painted by my son, Jeffrey. One of them is a print of his hands that he did at age five, the year he died.

Jeffrey's art will help me to keep perspective as I listen and talk with people. He will help me spiritually as well, because the lessons from his life keep coming to benefit me and others.
