Overwhelmingly Thankful

Jesus, I am so thankful.  I can't even begin to tell You how my heart feels; good thing You know it anyway.  I am so thankful that You helped me pass boards.  I've been working so hard for the past 2 years to become a nurse.  And honestly, a lot of those two years were spent so far away from You.  I spend so little time with You.  But still the beauty of it all was that You were there.  You were in every patient's room, whether they knew you or not.  You were with Joe when he was unable to communicate and when his family wasn't there.  You were with Susie and her husband when she, unknowingly, was just weeks away from dying.  You were with Ms. Jane when she was in the hardest time of her life, but she still made it her prerogative to make me laugh every time I went in her room.  I am oh so grateful for that.  Father, You were there.  You were with them.  I am so thankful for the last 2 years.  I am thankful that You have molded me into the nurse I am now, but You're not done yet.  You gave me a job when I didn't ever think I would get one.  I was so frustrated with being told that I wasn't going to fit in that unit.  You knew better than that.  You put me where I wanted to be all along.  Daddy, I don't deserve that.  I don't deserve You.  I don't deserve how wonderful You've been to me, and it's all coming together so quickly.  My heart is full of thanksgiving.  Lord, just thank You.  I don't know what else to say, but thank You.
