Beautiful Books

Posted on November 27, 2020 by msw blog

Sometimes I just want to read a book because I like the cover! I can tell you how many times I’ve been drawn to a book because its got a nice image of a house and a road and a tree. Ooh what’s s that? I think. When I am sent a stack of books, i’ll almost always gravitate to the one with the cover or title I like best. -Oprah

The Siren

Posted on November 25, 2020 by msw blog

A siren wailed outside a little boy’s house. Unfamiliar with the sound, he asked his mother what it was. She explained that it was meant to alert people of a dangerous storm. She said that if people did not take cover, they might die as a result of the tornado. The boy replied, “Mommy, why is that a bad thing? If we die, don’t we meet Jesus?”

Little children don’t always understand what it means to die.

Belief in Jesus’s death and resurrection brings the assurance of life with Him forever.

Posted on November 25, 2020 by msw blog

 ______research branch is totally different from the main campus. Today at orientation I felt at ease; no heightened reactions, anxiety, or anger. I found the resources institution fascinating. I can see myself in this role as a research therapist helping make groundbreaking discoveries on youth and suicide ideation. Lord, I ask that you equip me with the skills I need, and that you speak through me, and that you use me as you see fit.

Publish in an open access journal | Emerald Publishing

Looking back, this was one of my dream jobs as it allowed me to obtain free clinical supervision, I interacted with interdisciplinary teams, made a very livable wage, and I learned plenty in regards to suicide prevention programs, grants, contacts, and legislation.
