My Hilarious Dad--This Week: Doctors, Three Things And A Prayer


Doctor's Reply By Disciplines

When a panel of doctors was asked to vote on adding a new wing to their hospital,

-the Allergists voted to scratch it

-and the Dermatologists advised no rash moves.

-The Gastroenterologists had a gut feeling about it,

-but the Neurologists thought the administration had a lot of nerve,

-and the Obstetricians stated they were all laboring under a misconception.

-The Ophthalmologists considered the idea short-sighted;

-the Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!",

-while the Pediatricians said, "Grow up!

-The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness;

-the Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing,

-and the Radiologists could see right through it!

-The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow;

-the Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter".

-The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward,

-but the Urologists felt the scheme wouldn't hold water.

-The Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas,

-and the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

-And in the end, the Proctologists left the decision up to some (edited out) in administration.

Fortune

----------------------------------------

And last but not the least, the prayer my thoughtful friend offered for me which I would like to offer for you which in turn I would like you to offer for your loved ones and friends:

I ask the Lord to bless you, as I pray for you today;
to guide you and protect you, as you go along your way.
His love is always with you, His promises are true.
And when you give Him all your cares, you know He'll see you through.

Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives, e-mail buddies and siblings in Christ reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. In Jesus' precious name.

Amen.
