DONE...It is NOT God's will we fail

Nursing Students NCLEX

Well POO POO on that! I have read entry after entry of people saying they will pass when it's "God's will" or when "God deems the time right". I even bought in to that way of thinking myself. Then I started getting mad at myself for thinking that way. You see, I know beyond any shadow of a doubt that God has chosen this path for me. I believe it was set in motion a very long time ago and it hasn't happened before now because of ME not because of God. I'm tired of failing this test just as some of you are. I've taken it twice already and am set to take it a 3rd time on Aug 20th. This time I am going to pass. I believe in my goal. I know my limitations and I know what I can do. I can do this test. You can too. What am I doing differently? Well for one thing I am not going to whine anymore to God that I am waiting for His time to be right for me to pass the test. His time was right the moment He placed the desire in my heart and I accepted it. Right? Right! So who is to blame? Guess who that great deceiver is. Right again! So satan I rebuke you in the name of Jesus Christ. I rebuke your hold on my life preventing me from becoming the nurse I was ordained to be. I refuse to believe you and your lies. I place my faith, my love and my future in God's hands. I thank God now for providing me with questions on this next test that I will know the answers to so that I will pass. I also pray this prayer to cover the other nursing students who read this posting who are like me and believe they are to become RN's as part of their lifes plan to serve our Lord by serving our fellow men/women. Amen (thank all of you who read this. If you believe as I do start now thanking God for your passing grade on your next exam instead of begging Him to allow you to pass.) :-)

Amen...Brenda I am in the same boat as you :( I take mine for the 3rd time 9/15/14. So many emotions.

I touch and agree with you! I started in a program and couldn't continue because my average fell short 3 points in my first semester. I decided not to risk a second attempt with the school so I left. They decided not to accept me back anyway because my nursing GPA fell 1point short to re enter the program. I truly believe that god was protecting me from something either with the school or personal. I refuse to believe he brought me this far to forsake me. So I will continue to apply to other schools because I know I am highly favored and nursing is the path he chose for me! I wish to be at the point you are now. You made it this far. So all students keep the faith this to shall pass! Good luck I know it will be grand in the end!

I've found it helpful when facing challenges to pray, not to pass an exam or do well at clinical or at work, but to approach the situation with a calm spirit, which will allow me to face whatever difficulties may come my way. While I'm doing so, I also try to be conscious of my breathing and to take slow deep breaths; it really helps to settle the jitters.

I've found prayer and calm breathing particularly helpful when I was having difficulty at work.

For those of you facing NCLEX, tests at school, clinical, or certification exams, prepare well and try not to see a failure/difficulty as God testing or rejecting you; that just causes more anxiety. James says that with evil things God cannot be tried, nor does he try mankind.
