Nursing Life - By God's Grace

So, I realized that I haven't posted much about being a nursing student on this blog. My bad. LoL. 

Honestly, its still shock value to me that I am actually in nursing school and on my way to being a medical professional. This career was always something that I wanted to avoid, but now that God has led me here, He's been working on my anxiety.


My number one advice for anyone entering into the nursing field is this: pray and listen. This is the title of the blog, and its been my slogan in all my decision makings so to say. When facing a difficulty (and nursing school is definitely difficult), I pray constantly. I pray about my study habits, my charting, my papers, my exams (you bet my exams), and about my conduct with my classmates and patients. And prayer is what? Anyone? 2 Thessalonians 3:1-3  "Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil." Prayer is speaking to God on behalf of your life and His ability to be there for you and guide you. Now if you are having a direct conversation with God, then half of our part is listening. So pray to God, tell Him whats really going on in your life (He already knows so feel free to be honest), and then wait for Him to show you His will. Could be through a person, His word, a strong impression, providence. 


I'll be honest, I'm not the best nursing student; I'm still learning how to study, I'm afraid of more than half of the hospital equipment, and its rare when I know exactly what to do. However, we serve an awesome God, who has shown us again how He can make leaders out of the biggest wimps, servants out of the most arrogant, and skillful workers out of those with lack of talent. 


So leave it to God- pray and listen.
