"Hey... You've got your porch lights on..."

I just got home from an evening shift at the nursing home. I had to give 3 suppositories (I'd never given one before). If you don't know what a suppository is, don't ask.

One of the residents on 2nd floor died. I was passing meds on the 3rd floor at the time, so me and my nurse ran down at the time of death. My nurse, who is a wonderful instructor, made me take vitals on the resident, who had just died minutes prior. "Yes," I confirmed in my official Graduate Nurse voice, "he is dead." I mean, he even looked dead. One way to confirm death is to flash a light into the pupils and see if they constrict. I looked into those eyes, and I got creeped out. That was an interesting experience.

I gave my co-worker a Bible yesturday. It was great, except she didn't know anything about the Bible, so I said start with the Gospel of John. I probably won't see her for another half of a month (I'm going on vacation again, and right after is the Boards), so I will be anxious to see if she read any of it.

Speaking of the Boards...well, I don't even like thinking about it.

Speaking of vacation, I am totally stoked because both my brothers are coming up to NH. And, since it's one of my most favoritest places on earth and my whole family will be there, I will be soooo happy.

Today I watched an online sermon from Dr. Charles Stanley about God using us. God really spoke to me through that. He hit some things that I have been struggling with this summer. I thank God for that.

I worry about nonchristians. I worry about those who don't know Jesus. I don't know why, but I cannot comprehend what it is like to live without Christ. I would be miserable. And I already get miserable when my Spiritual life is not up to par. How much worse it would be if I wasn't saved!

Thank you Jesus!
