This post is to share how God has called me to become a nurse. I will explain why I became a nurse, and how I was called to be a nurse. I will also provide an example of how I can work on my master’s degree in a way to carry out Colossians 3:23-24, which states, “And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.” ("The Maxwell Leadership Bible", 2002)

On the other hand, there were a handful of nurses who did not attempt to mask their disapproval. As a patient, this made me feel small and unimportant at a time when I should have been celebrating.

One example of how I can work on my master’s degree, in a way to carry out Colossians 3:23-24, is by putting forth my greatest effort. I will not be careless in the creation and completion of my assignments. I will accept all constructive criticism as a tool to improve my writing skills. Also, if I have questions I will not be shy, but will ask questions, so I may succeed through this
