Bout with the flu

Just slowly recovering from the flu...

I, however, managed to drive for my mother as she attended a wake of her aunt (hence, my grandmother, too) in San Juan. But I was already feeling ill at the time. I managed to sleep in a closed-off car in the scorching heat and hardly breaking a sweat.

And before that, I somehow managed to go on grocery errands.

Then, I somehow managed to get myself to choir, with the help of Bioflu and about an hour's rest.

But payback came last night, as I was already suffering from chills.

Fortunately, a good night's rest solved that.

Now, I'm just resting up, gathering strength for the week ahead...

So that's it for now. Happy weekend!

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.
