Thank you all. Today was a very rough day to start, but I asked for help and it got better. The training is only 3 days, which is very short, and I didn’t feel like I learned enough to do this on my own yet. A lot of my training, I was just witnessing, not doing, so I had to go over a couple things today (plus, some of the other CNAs taught me some tricks). Before that, I had a minor breakdown and just needed some fresh air, so I stepped out in the hall. The HR manager was walking right toward me (like God put her there), and talked to me and gave me a hug. All the other CNAs told me they felt EXACTLY the same way when they first started, which made me feel better. 😃

Tomorrow is a new day and I intend to keep giving it what I got. I know as time goes on, I’ll get stronger and more alert, and I will look back to think, “What was I so worried about?” 😊
 
Everything went much smoother yesterday! I felt like I’m finally finding my own pace, and I got things done early (it helped that most of my patients are self-supporting). About the time I was about to leave, I had one patient to clean up and then I was able to leave. I felt so good about myself. 😃 Your prayers are working! Thank God. 🙂

I’m off work today, so I’m just taking it easy before it’s back to work tomorrow. 😉
 
DaughterofMary6- God bless you for the “work” that you do and for keeping us updated.

I’m grateful to God that He has sent us someone like you. To visit and “work” for the sick as Our Lord did and for Praying for us as well.

DaugherofMary6- You stated in a thread that you are mostly attracted to a Marian order and you’re “searching” with Franciscan and Dominican order. Have you considered this order?

The Servants of Mary, Ministers to the Sick

A Prayer for Workers

O glorious Joseph! Who concealed your incomparable and regal dignity of custodian of Jesus and of the Virgin Mary under the humble appearance of a craftsman and provided for them with your work, protect with loving power your sons, especially entrusted to you.

You know their anxieties and sufferings, because you yourself experienced them at the side of Jesus and of His Mother. Do not allow them, oppressed by so many worries, to forget the purpose for which they were created by God. Do not allow the seeds of distrust to take hold of their immortal souls.

Remind all the workers that in the fields, in factories, in mines, and in scientific laboratories, they are not working, rejoicing, or suffering alone, but at their side is Jesus, with Mary, His Mother and ours, to sustain them, to dry the sweat of their brow, giving value to their toil.

Teach them to turn work into a very high instrument of sanctification as you did. Amen.
Code: 
O my God, teach me to receive the sick in Thy Name. Give to my efforts success for the glory of Thy holy Name. It is Thy work: without Thee, I cannot succeed.

Grant that the sick Thou hast placed in my care may be abundantly blessed, and not one of them be lost because of any neglect on my part. Help me to overcome every temporal weakness, and strengthen in me whatever may enable me to bring joy to the lives of those I serve.

Give me grace, for the sake of Thy sick ones and of those lives that will be influenced by them. Amen.

goforgoal,

I’ve thought about the Servants of Mary, Ministers to the Sick, but I know very little about them. Right now, I am just focusing on my full-time job and taking some time away from discernment. I won’t be visiting any communities for a while since my job requires my attention. I am open to discernment in the future, though, so we will see. 😉
 
Praying that our Lord continues to watch over you and guide you.

Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory be…

Amen.
 
Thank you dear Lord for giving DaughterofMary6 strength, courage and for the folks at work that have encouraged her. Please continue to keep her strong. In the name of our Lord and Savior. Amen.
 
Still praying for you. Thank you for your service to these folks. My mother spend 6 years in a nursing home due to dementia. I was very grateful for the care she received.

God bless you for keeping all of us informed and updated. You stated that you’re taking time away from your discernment I’m not really sure if this will make sense or not but I don’t think one can really take time away so I have to ask

Do you think you’re “living out” your vocation by *working *there?
