Lord,
You truly are something. You knew that coming to work yesterday am(03/26) I was praying to not have a student to precept. As a nurse, I need to be on top of my clients’ health concerns and care, and I like to be in control of my assignment. Though the inevitable still happens, having a student can sometimes add into the craziness of my day, which doesn’t help. I can be proud and independent this way. Got to work and voila! I have a student. It made me anticipate a chaotic day and chaotic day I had. However, you knew better Lord. You knew better!
My patient Mr. R was in a respiratory distress and his heart was compromised. He was my focus most of my shift and if he wasn’t tended to, together with my colleagues we could have lost him. At the same time, I kept thinking of my other patients who are less tended to. I started to feel stressed. Pero Lord, you provided.
I just kept hearing you say, “Anak, I know what you need. You need a student right now. You need one.” And you were right Lord. If it weren’t for my student, I could have neglected two of my other patients and I would have been so swamped and psychologically compromised as well. Not being able to save Mr. R’s life.
I am too proud often to ask for help Lord, you know that. Sometimes, I also doubt your presence. But because of my pride, it separates me from you. Fortunately, you love me and with your divine power, you were able to break that wall that separates us: Helping my colleagues and I save a life and through my student, 2 of your people are cared for. Thank you Lord, for you provide and continue to save lives.
Me again,
LULI JKM
