Daily Meditations of a Nurse Warrior
How do you measure (your) success--one that is like a mustard seed, slow growing, but when it does is strong, steady, true, persistent, welcoming, and permeating (see Matthew 13:32); or one that is like bamboo, fast-growing, and as it does becomes vigorous, noxious, disrespectful, selfish, draining, and overcrowded? #whatareyourpriorities #howcontentareyou & #howdoyouwanttoberemembered

Daily Meditations of a Nurse Warrior
In Ephesians 4:16, Paul reminds us that "each part [should do] its work," because we are part of "the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, growing[s] and building[s] itself up in love." Therefore, no matter what you do, know that your job is just as important as anyone else's. #bethebestthatyoucanbe & #honorhim

Colossians 3:13-16 reminds us how important it is to look out for another, work together, and serve one another, because together, not a part, we flourish in unity and peace. #respect #accountability & #teamwork #equalshappinessandhealthiness

No matter what obstacles or hardships we face, in this lifetime, God promises that he will strengthen, help, and uphold us with his righteous right hand (see Isaiah 41:10). #fearnot & #hehasourback

Whether at work, home, church, or anywhere, Leviticus, 19:33-34, reminds us to welcome others with kindness and to love them as ourselves; because we were once foreigners. #takeeveryopportunitytowelcomeothers

In Proverbs 9:10, Solomon says, wisdom abounds when we "fear" or have an awe of God. Therefore, my prayer is to give those who serve Him, as well as others, "a discerning heart...the ability to distinguish between right and wrong" (see 1 Kings 3:9), and to also have "a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand on the seashore" (4:29). #befilledwithwisdom

Do you need help fighting life's "dragons"? Colossians 2:15 acknowledges that these "dragons" are no match for God. Allow God to help you fight the "dragons" of this world; because "He gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Corinthians 15:57). #armyourselfwithGod & #bearmedwithwisdomtruthandstrength

Words can make such an impact, especially when it comes in the form of criticism. James 1:19 advises us to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry; and live in harmony with one another (Romans 12:16.). Therefore when heeding correction, we gain understanding (see Proverbs 15:32). #RemainCalm & #RespondRespectfullyAndHumbly❤️

Daily Meditations of a Nurse Warrior
When we allow our egos or the need to be right to stand in the way, we run the risk of self-destruction (see Galatians 5:15) and possibly other negative outcomes. Therefore, we should consider other ways to temper our attitudes and behaviors and aspire to have the same mindset as Christ, which is self-giving love (Philippians 2:5-8). #bewise #compromise #seekpeace #beunited & #worktogether
