A Morning to Walk in the Garden
Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
Whenever
I need a break from things, I know that I can just walk out the back door and
take a walk around the garden. It’s
especially important for our family members, especially if they have been our
guest for many days. Whenever I think
about heaven, I always think that it would be like a morning walk in the
garden.
Do you have a garden to go to quietly meditate? Can you tell me about it in the comments section?

I went in to volunteer this
beautiful Saturday afternoon. It was
very slow here today. That means that
there is no one to visit with. The
patient census is low, and the few visitors we have are in closed doors. If the rooms door is closed, I do not go in,
my thinking is that they want some privacy.
So,
I decided to take a stroll through the garden.
Our hospice has a large, beautiful and well-maintained garden. The front of our hospice is nicely landscaped
and the garden is in the back of the hospice, it is walled off for the security
of our patients.
It’s
a great place for patients and family members to get a peaceful change of
scenery. They can go from a patient’s
room to a restful garden. We sometime
even roll out a patient to enjoy the outside scenery. We only do that if medically we can do
so. They absolutely love it!
Our
garden reminds me of the song, “A walk in the garden with Jesus.” I am a firm believer that every hospice or
hospital should have a garden next to it.
Around our spacious garden there are many benches, trees, bushes, flower
beds, and stones. All of them have been
donated by family members who have had a loved one here. Our hospice is a non-profit and this is one
of the ways in which things are built, like gardens.
The
garden is the perfect place to take a mental or an emotional break from what is
happening inside. You can walk around,
or just sit on the bench and watch the fountain, or the squirrels play in the
tree branches.
