I think God has designed me to be a nurse. I was thinking about this as I was working on an "Thinking Like a Nurse" sheet for school. With nursing, you are active for much of the day, always on your feet, assisting one patient to the other. At the end of the shift you are required to document EVERYTHING that you did that day and EVERYTHING that the patient did that day (minus sleeping and sitting in their room by themselves) that is the ONLY thing that is not on their charting. Everything else from eating to pooping to medication to visitors to walking and anything else that you can think has to be documented. That's really the only time where a nurse gets to sit down and not be moving around. It's really a good balance for me. Documenting still hard core requires brain power but it does give your body a little bit of a break before one needs to get up and moving again.
And that is how I like things. I like that I can move around during my job and I don't have to sit all day. I think God designed me this way so I could be a nurse :)
I am thankful that he thinks of these little things while he is knitting together our DNA strands to create something he always knows will be beautiful.
HURRAY! For walking and sitting and moving and serving and nursing!
