bliss

I won't lie, I'm tired when my alarm buzzes in the wee hours of the morning - but I'm happier than I've been in a while. I know, however, that this happiness is temporary and I can't stake my satisfaction of life or, really anything in a job - even if the job description is caring for others. I'm happy at the moment though. I love having a mission - having something to gear my energies toward when I get out of the bed in the morning. I'm so much more productive this way. I love being a nurse. I'm thankful that I have the opportunity to be a nurse, and I pray that I would be able to relax a little and just enjoy my time in orientation with the other new nurses. I'm thankful that I have an understanding husband who's excited to see me when I get home from work, and I'm glad that I have a puppy who'll cuddle with me while I'm unwinding after a day full of lectures and quizes. I'm thankful that I got to talk Rigby for a walk this evening - normally that would be something I dreaded doing, but for some reason I really enjoyed it tonight. I'm thankful that I can be sure Josh's and I's financial needs will be met, and I'm thankful that I get to make money doing what I feel I was born to do - care for others. Lord, thank you for these opportunities in my life, and remind me that this is you working in my life everyday. Remove my arrogance and pride, and remind me always that I am nothing without you, and I can DO nothing without you. Amen.

Love, Sara
