Most of the time I enjoy being a nurse. Sometimes I don't.
As a nurse, I take this perspective. I didn't cause the disease. I can't cure it. But, I can help ease the pain and give comfort to a patient under my care. I try my best to help ease any pain and discomfort of the patients I am caring for each day. I even pray for them. As I am doing my assessment of a patient, I quietly, under my breath, say a prayer for God to help them and their families through this, and to comfort them, and to give them another chance to know Him.
The part I don't like about being a nurse is the death of a patient. It is so hard to watch someone die and most probably be lost through eternity. When I hear the code blue alarm, I run to help save a life. Adrenaline is flowing as I am pumping their chest, or pushing medications into their veins, and always, I am praying for their soul. I don't know the life they have lived, or the paths they have walked, but I beg God to give them another chance. Sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't, I always think....have I done my best to reach the lost? I don't think I like the answer to that question. Are any of us REALLY doing all we can to reach the lost???
Think about it, and ....reach out to someone today. Be blessed...Gayla
