The governors Primary CareTask Force has presented its finalreport to Governor Dennis Dau-gaard, recommending that healthprofessions education programswork more closely together inSouth Dakota and that trainingopportunities in rural areas be ex-panded.

The task force also recommendsthat Governor Daugaard appointan ongoing oversight committee tomonitor progress and report tohim, the Board of Regents and theLegislature.

An aging population needing

more health care, a decliningschool-age population to fillhealthcare positions, and the con-centration of health professionalsin our most populous areas aremaking it difficult in rural commu-nities to recruit and retain medicalproviders, the Governor said.The task forces assignment wasnot easy, and I appreciate the timeand effort devoted to it.

Primary Care Task Forcereports to governor

The task force report offers de-tailed strategies and recommenda-tions in five areas:

Capacity of healthcare educa-tion programs

Quality rural health experi-ences

Recruitment and retentionInnovative primary care modelsAccountability and oversightExamples of specific strategies

include payments to South Dakotamedical providers who offer in-struction and supervision of physi-cian assistant students, and ex-panding rural experience pro-

grams such as the Frontier andRural Medicine (FARM) program.

Governor Daugaard said anoversight committee is crucial.

Maintaining health care inrural South Dakota is a long-termcommitment that requires contin-ually tracking our efforts and

Rural Development has been agreat partner for First Interstate

Bank and our business loan cus-tomers in 2012. Their B&I pro-gram has provided us access tolong term fixed rate financing forour rural business customers,said Brett Blasius, President ofFirst Interstate Bank Wall. I feelthat this partnership has strength-ened our rural community bymaintaining and in some cases,adding jobs, which are the result ofattractive finance options to ourcustomers.

In Fiscal Year 2012, USDARural Development Business andIndustry (B&I) Guaranteed Loan

QuESTiON: How should myhusband relate to his female boss?Occasionally, she needs to discuss abusiness matter with him that re-quires privacy and so she willschedule a lunch appointment withhim alone. Im uncomfortable withthis, but he sees no alternativesince this kind of practice is com-mon and expected in his line ofwork. In fact, to raise this as a con-cern would make things difficult forhim professionally. What are yourthoughts and what should he do? ANSwEr: Before saying any-thing else we want to commend youon your zeal for protecting yourmarriage. Its obvious that you caredeeply about preserving the in-tegrity of your relationship withyour husband. We wish more hus-bands and wives had this kind ofcommitment to marital purity. Toomany people nowadays seem con-tent to accept the status quo. Theygo along with whats common andexpected without much thought orresistance. If we want to live Godsway, there are going to be times

when we will have to be willing topush back against the culture.For better or for worse, circum-

stances like those youve describedhave become a normal part of con-temporary life. A hundred years agomen and women rarely mingled inthe workplace. Nowadays theylabor side by side on a daily basis.Whats more, many companies em-ploy just as many females as malesin middle- and upper-managementpositions. If you, your husband, andyour marriage are going to surviveand thrive in the modern world,youre going to have to find ways todeal with these inescapable reali-ties.

There is, of course, one thingthese cultural changes havent al-tered or eliminated. Were talking

about the importance of establish-ing meaningful boundaries. Theseboundaries are needed to protect acouples relationship against out-side threats. Youre right to bethinking in terms of maintainingsuch hedges.

There are a number of ways youand your husband can do this. Thefirst step is to make sure that heson the same page with you. If heisnt, youll have to sit down and dis-cuss your concerns with him inearnest. If he agrees that some-thing needs to be done about the sit-uation, you might suggest that heassume responsibility for startingthe process. He could begin byspeaking openly and honestly withhis boss. Once she understandswhere hes coming from, she mightbe willing to make some appropri-

ate changes. For example, whereverpossible she might make an effort toinclude other employees in offsitebusiness luncheons. Matters thatmust be kept strictly private couldbe discussed at the office, behindclosed doors if necessary, but inclose proximity to other co-workers.

Meanwhile, it may be worth yourwhile to examine your motives.Make sure youre not operating onthe basis of unwarranted fears oran unhealthy need for control. Agreat deal depends upon the under-lying reasons for your uneasinessabout your husbands work environ-ment. Is there a history of infidelityin your marriage? Are there anyother reasons to suppose that yourhusbands luncheons with the bossmight pose a threat to the stabilityof your relationship? What aboutthe circumstances under whichthese business meetings are con-ducted? Is there anything unusual

about them? For instance, have anyof these conferences been scheduledafter working hours? Do they takeplace in locations (like a cocktaillounge) that might be considered in-appropriate?

If not, is it possible that somepart of your concern stems fromprevious hurts and difficult experi-ences? Is there something in yourfamily background that might ac-count for your anxiety a divorce,an affair, abuse or neglect of somekind? Do you struggle with feelingsof insecurity or low-self esteem? Doyou and your husband find it hardto talk about your deepest thoughtsand emotions?

If the answer to any of thesequestions is yes, wed urge you toseek professional assistance. Atrained therapist can help you andyour husband perform an assess-ment of your marriage and pointout both the strengths and weak-

nesses of your relationship.Send your questions to Dr. Dob-

son, c/o Focus on the Family, POBox 444, Colorado Springs, CO80903. This question and answer isexcerpted from books authored byDr. James Dobson and published byTyndale House Publishers.

By Pastor Cornelius R. StamAbrahams faith in God was strong. When God

called him to forsake his family, friends and country,he obeyed and went forth, not knowing whither hewent. When God promised to multiply his seed as thestars of heaven, he believed it, though childless.When, in his old age, God promised that he would stillhave a son by ninety-year-old Sarah, he believed iteven though he had waited so long, seemingly in vain.When God promised to give his seed the land in whichhe had sojourned, he believed it, though all reason ar-gued against it. When God asked him to offer in sac-rifice the son born so late in life, the son upon whomall the promises depended, he obeyed, concludingthat it must be Gods plan to raise him from the dead!

Such was Abrahams faith in God! Three times thisis emphasized in Romans 4 alone: He was not weakin faith (Ver. 19); he staggered not at the promise ofGod through unbelief, but was strong in faith (Ver.20).

But it was not the strength of Abrahams faith thatsaved him; it was the fact that the object of his faithwas God (See again Gen. 15:6). He had placed hisfaith in the right Person. His faith became strong onlybecause he had heard and believed God in the firstplace.

For what saith the Scripture? Abraham be-lieved God, and it was counted unto him forrighteousness, and thus to him that workethnot, but believeth on Him that justifieth the un-godly, his faith is counted for righteousness(Rom. 4:3,5).

The simplest, humblest believer, who ever so feeblycommits himself to God and His Word, is justified

freely by His grace through the redemption that is inChrist Jesus (Rom. 3:24).

FINANCIAL FOCUSFivE rEASONS NOT TOBE A "DO-iT-YOurSELF"

iNvESTOrRichard Wahlstrom

www.edwardjones.comThese days, you can go online

and invest, for modest fees. Youcan also visit various websites forresearch and watch numerouscable shows for investment recom-mendations. So, why shouldnt yoube a do-it-yourself investor

rather than work with a financialprofessional?

Actually, there are at least fivegood reasons why a financial advi-sor can help make you a better in-vestor.

A financial advisor can:Ask the right questions If

you try to invest on your own, youmay find yourself asking thewrong questions, such as: Whatsthe hottest investment out there?

A financial professional can helpframe better questions, such as:Given my individual risk toler-ance and long-term goals, whichinvestments should I consider tohelp me build a balanced portfo-lio? In other words, a financialprofessional can help you ask thequestions that can lead to betterresults.

Look at your situation objec-tively No matter how hard you

try, you wont be able to take allthe emotion out of your investmentchoices. After all, your investmentsuccess will play a large role insome key areas of your life, such asyour ability to enjoy a comfortableretirement. Consequently, if youthink youre not making theprogress you should with your in-vestments, you may be tempted tomake a hasty decision to give yourportfolio a jolt. Frequently,though, such choices can backfire.When it comes to investing, itsbetter to invest with your head,not your heart. A financial advisorcan analyze your situation, assessyour risk tolerance and make ap-propriate recommendations.

Show a deeper understandingof investment research You can

look up many types of financialdata on your own. But do you knowhow to put all these pieces to-gether into a cohesive picture? A fi-nancial professional, with years ofexperience and training, is gener-ally more capable of finding the re-search sources and making themost sense out of the results.

Put experience to work in mak-ing portfolio recommendations.Even if youve been investing for

many years, you might be sur-prised at all the underlying influ-ences that should go into makinginvestment decisions. But a finan-cial professional understands mar-ket patterns, the nature of diversi-fication and other factors neces-sary in helping you make the rightchoices for your situation.

Spend time looking for oppor-tunities Even if you enjoy theprocess of investing, the chancesare quite good that you cant spendas much time on it as a financialprofessional. That means, amongother things, you arent constantlyon the lookout for new investmentopportunities. Nor are you alwayslooking within your own portfoliofor opportunities to rebalance ormake other adjustments that canhelp you move forward towardyour goals. But when you workclosely with a financial advisor, he

or she is exploring the financialmarkets for new investmentprospects while regularly review-ing your portfolio for possibilities

of upgrading quality, increasing di-versification or making adjust-ments in response to changes inyour life.

The do-it-yourself route maybe fine for home repairs. But whenit comes to managing your invest-ment situation, there are benefitsto working with a professional.

The Looking Glass of Time

This day and age it seems every-one is so maxed out. The pressureis on us all to perform at such a

high degree just to survive. Tem-pers seem to flare so easily and so-lutions are hard to implement.Stress is so high that many areparalyzed in their thinking and liv-ing. Stress related illness and dis-ease are running rampant and tak-ing its toll. We need to fix this now.

In all reality, overcoming worryand anxiety can be a simple processwhen we begin to understand thatworry is our mind working in re-verse to hold us back-a bad habitthat can and must be changed.This habit of fear and worry alwayshas a devastating impact on ourmental and physical wellbeing, soif we are to overcome worry andanxiety in our lives, we must deter-mine to take control of our thoughtlife and begin to move in a forwarddirection with new and more pro-ductive habits of thinking.

So, how do we do that? Well, as

you may know, I could talk forhours on the subject of stress man-agement, so can only share a few ofthe strategies that have worked forme over the years. I have foundthat in order to develop habits ofright thinking that will ultimatelyhelp us to overcome worry and anx-iety in my life, we need to makesure our priorities are in the cor-rect order. For me, that meansmore time spent in prayer and de-votion, for that is where my peacecomes from. That is the first step.

Daily remind yourself that "thistoo shall pass." Time changesthings and difficulties always have

a way of moving on. I always askmyself "what is the worst that canhappen?" and then prepare to ac-

cept the worst. Then I start lookingfor solutions to the problems andchallenges I am facing. This actionstep alone helps you overcome.(And do you know, the worst youimagine rarely happens.)

Make it a point to refuse to letthe economy, or your job or yourboss, or any other negative thingcontrol your life. You are the deci-sion maker for your life. You chooseyour attitude.

When you discover that your de-cisions and choices have gonewrong, don't start placing blame.Take responsibility. It's never easyto admit you were wrong, but indoing so, the stress is often relievedcompletely and you are free tochange course and make rightchoices, unburdened and unhin-dered.

Probably my best advice to you isto be more aware of when you start

feeling the stress building up inyou, and instead of trying to ploughthrough it while you let all thosenegative emotions eat you alive,

just stop! Take a moment to regainyour bearings. Take a deep breathto relax and gain control of youremotions. Remind yourself thatyou are building a new and positivehabit of thinking and reacting thatwill help you to overcome stressand anxiety.

It's a Monday, and I can almostguarantee something stressful willoccur almost any time now. Howwill you react? The decision isyours.
