Punzi's Corner Blog: Still not well...

This day in history from:

Still not well...

Got out to some sort of normal work schedule but still not feeling well.

But I had to get out to do some errands and report to my consultancy today for most of the day.

Managed to pull through and now, I'm paying the price. I may relapse...

But I watched something on TV that ticked me off. It was a news report that hospital owners warning its patrons of some crime syndicate taking advantage of the situation to steal stuff in their rooms or fool them into giving doctor's fees to impostors.

The unfinished point of that report implies that these hospitals, by issuing these warnings, will wash its hands off any liability if the hospital patrons are victimized.

That's plain dumb. These patrons naturally cannot think straight as they are in a dire medical situation. Hence, it is really up to these hospitals to be vigilant for them. It is the responsibility of these hospitals to provide adequate security in their premises to protect these people.

They cannot wash themselves with this warning. And they won't get away with if they tried to.

It will not be well for them if they tried...

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
