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

Published

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.) :-)

Well my dear - I don't know you, but I am VERY proud of you! Amen sister in Christ. And yes, the great deceiver has been beaten down with a huge Wooden Stick - we just have to take that power that was given us by the Holy Spirit and run with it. I am 45 and going into nursing school after working as a CNA as a primary or secondary job since 1989. I became a police officer and was forced to medically retire three years ago - and let me tell you....the pity party I held for myself was beyond pathetic. Then The Big Guy (my loving term for God), smacked me upside the head and showed me another path - a path that I had been walking for so many years anyway. I have learned that no matter what tests we go through, they help strengthen us for a harder test down the line. Take today for example - I had a resident with developmental disabilities (and other pathologies) try to physically attack another resident. I was able to purposefully detain her without hurting her or myself (a part of my old law enforcement training) and when she bit me and hit me so hard across the face that she broke my glasses; I was blessed with an immediate peace which allowed me to stay focused and not angry. I could see her pathology, not her person. The end of the incident was peaceful, contained and we moved on. All a part of things that I have been through in the past as a CNA and police officer. All glory to God - and yes, sister....you WILL pass. :)

Amen to this! God loves us so much that he sent his only Son to die for all of our sins. Remember we are all just nasty disgusting sinful creatures who are not worthy to be saved. However what I have learned is to put everything in his hands and never worry about anything. He always come right on time. Thank you for this post. May God bless you.
