Reading the BIBLE...

You know, I always get pretty caught up in the plans that I make for myself. Reading the "Dug Down Deep" book by Joshua Harris I thought seemed like a great idea - and that would be my way to "connect" with God throughout the week too. But I learned this week, that nothing comes close to actually reading the word of God, the Bible. I struggled this weekend because Friday was a very hard day at work. I made some minor mistakes, but to me - they feel like the worlds biggest, (and stupidest) mistakes. I want to exceed expectations, I want to excell in my field. I want to be the exception - the extraordinary fast learning smart new girl! But really? I'm a human being full of sin. I'm a failure. I make stupid mistakes, and I get angry and frustrated and feel down about myself because, I'm a human. I thank God that Jesus gave his life on the cross for my sins - and there are many. I'm thankful that I started reading my bible again. I'm thankful that I felt convicted about not reading my bible every day. I'm thankful for every time I remember to pray to God. I am thankful that I've started going to the gym again, and I pray that I would continue to do that. I am thankful that I still have weeks of orientation left, and that I have had very nice, understanding preceptors so far. I'm thankful that I passed my boards and have gotten to this point period. I pray that God would protect my patients while I'm still learning. I pray that I would be able to follow you, God, everyday - read your word, pray to you, at least think about you. Thank you Lord. Amen.

Love, Sara
