Well, I have celebrated my schooling accomplishments and found a new home in Carroll, Iowa. I have obtained a job at a hospital I truly believe encompasses the same morals I believe in and I even have a temporary license with my name, followed by three letters signifying my current credentials.
Yet despite everything I "have" that is mentioned above, I still need to take my boards to prove I am competent and am worthy of all that I have accomplished. One test. Although I am dreading Tuesday morning with all my being, it has honestly brought me closer to God.
I'm sure I have shared this Bible verse with you before, but never before has it been so comforting: " Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4: 6-7) Golly I don't think it gets clearer than that! Oh I'm sure I will be a nervous wreck Monday night and maybe even have trouble sleeping...but I have a firm belief that I will feel God's calming peace with me on Tuesday morning.
Watch out boards. I'm coming at you with confidence in all my education and experiences...plus God will be with me.

You got this, girl! :)

ReplyDeleteI have accepted a new job myself! I will be the spiritual coordinator with Aseracare in Omaha. I begin Feb 18th. Can you believe it? I feel bad leaving Michelle but she is in good hands with Jen Kennedy!! Maybe we can make plans on attending hand-in-hand in April and see each other at the same time!
Take good care!! m
