Estrogen is effective in treating vaginal atrophy (reduction in size of a structure). Localized estro- gen is available as a cream, intra-vag- inal pill or a vaginal ring and provides a slow release of estradiol, which is associated with fewer adverse effects than systemic estrogen. Treatment results in rapid symptom relief after about two weeks. *Anticholinergic drugs. Anti- cholenergic drugs are the most com- monly used drugs in treating urgency incontinence. They provide an anti- spasmodic effect on smooth muscle to relieve symptoms. They further decrease urinary frequency and pain during urination and are given to increase bladder capacity. Postmenopausal Urinary Incontinence (Part two). In continuing with the discus- sion of management and treatment of urinary incontinence, we turn to behavior modification options. Devel- oping a voiding schedule and avoid- ing bladder irritants such as caffeine, carbonated beverages and spicy foods are first-line urgency incontinence (UI) treatments. Other recommendations include weight loss, managing fluid intake and pelvic floor muscle training (Kegels). Pelvic floor muscle training strengthens and supports the ure- thra, vagina and rectum to reduce UI symptoms and can be delivered with or without assistive devices. *Estrogen.

Mesh tape is used to create a sling and is placed under the urethra or bladder neck to provide support and keep the urethra closed to prevent urine leakage under stress (SI) from actions such as coughing or sneezing. Sling procedures are primarily used to correct SI, although they also may ease the symptoms of UI. Recovery time varies, but the recommendation is 2-4 weeks before returning to nor- mal activities.

Seventh-day Adventist Jesus Baptism The news about the wilderness prophet, John, and his wonderful announcement that the Messiah Savior was soon to come had spread all over Galilee. The message reached the peasants in the remote mountain towns and even the fish- ermen by the sea. Even in Nazareth it was told in the carpenter shop and Jesus recognized His call and realized His time had come. Turning from His daily work, He told his mother good bye and followed the steps of His countrymen who were flocking to the Jordan River. John the Baptist knew about the birth of Je- sus. He had heard about Jesus’ visit to Jerusalem when He was 12 years old. He had heard about the sinless life of Jesus and believed that He was the Messiah. Yet the fact that Jesus hadn’t made Himself known made John doubt this convic- tion. So John waited in faith, believing that in God’s own time, he would understand. It had been revealed to John that the Messiah would seek baptism at his hands and that a sign of His divine character would be given. As a result he would be able to present the Messiah to the people. When Jesus came to be baptized, John rec- ognized a purity of character that he had never seen in anyone. The atmosphere around Jesus was holy and awe inspiring. Many people were coming to him for baptism. Among these he had met people who were weighted with many sins. How different and pure Jesus was. All of this was in harmony with what had been revealed to John about the coming Messiah. Yet he felt unworthy to baptize Jesus. How could he, a sin- ner baptize the sinless One. As Jesus asked for baptism, John exclaimed, “I should be baptized by you and you are coming to me?” With gentle firmness Jesus said, “suffer it to be so now: for thus it becomes us to fulfill all righteousness.” John agreed and led Jesus down into the Jordan River and laid Him beneath the water. As soon as He came up Jesus knelt in prayer on the river bank. Here at the beginning of His ministry Jesus prayed for God’s blessing and guidance. Jesus pleaded with tears for the approval of His father. The heavens were opened and upon the Savior’s head descended a dove-like form of purest light, a fit emblem to Jesus, the meek and lowly One. John recognized the sign that God had promised. Not only John, but the people gathered around, heard Jesus’ heartfelt prayer. They saw His upturned face bathed in light. The Father Himself answered His petition. From heaven a voice was heard saying, “this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:17. These words strengthened our Savior for His ministry and inspired faith in those who witnessed this awesome event. John knew it was the world’s Redeemer he had just baptized and as the Holy Spirit rested on Him and with an outstretched hand pointed to Jesus he called out “behold the Lamb of God which takes away the sin of the world.” Jesus didn’t receive baptism as a con- fession of guilt on his own. Instead He was showing us how He identifies with sinners. His example shows us what we need to do. When we come to God with all our sins and weak- nesses we are not rebuffed but, “accepted in the beloved,” Ephesians 1:6. The light which fell from heaven upon the head of our Savior will fall on us as we pray for help to resist tempta- tion. Have you made a total commitment to God and been baptized? Maybe you’d like to make this important decision soon. The voice that spoke to Jesus says to every believing soul, “this is My beloved Child, in whom I am well pleased.” Community Bible Church Happy Father’s Day Proverbs 4:1-6 1Hear, my children, the instruc- tion of a father, And give attention to know understand- ing; 2 For I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law. 3 When I was my father’s son, Tender and the only one in the sight of my mother, 4 He also taught me, and said to me: “Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. 5 Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. Chapter four of Proverbs talks about fathers, and the writer gives examples of what he wants “his son” to learn to help him in the ups and downs of life. The writer wants the child to receive instruction, so it can reasonably be assumed that the child must have an instructor. The writer wants the child to know under- standing, so again it can be assumed that there must be someone to guide the child in gaining his understand- ing. Later in the chapter the child is told to get wisdom, which is the right use of knowledge. In verse one the writer is identified as a father, and in verse two he says, “For I give you good doc- trine” (which is teaching) and “Do not forsake my law” – strong terminology for the father’s instruction. During my life time I have watched as the entertainment industry has gone from presenting television programming that gave Fathers their due, as in “Father Knows Best”, to programming that shows fathers as incompetent dummies. Now while I will admit that there are some fathers who are incompetent dummies, there are also many, many fathers who want only what is best for their children and strive not only to “teach” but to encourage their children in doing right and being faithful, being diligent, and being honest. There are fathers who teach by word and example that there is still some integrity and good character left in this culture in our day. I was at an event the other day, talking to a dad, when I saw that man’s son come up, stand next to his dad, and just look at his dad for a moment, and say goodbye before he left. The expression on that young one’s face spoke volumes to me of the respect, love, and admiration the boy had for his father. Apparently the dad was doing something right, and I believe that boy would be open to the instruction of that father. You may think you have failed as a parent, but tomor- row’s a new day, and it can be a new beginning. See you Sunday.
