The Power of faith a nursing prospective

I have been in nursing since 1971 when I started my career in the Navy as a corpsman. Over those years there have been many opportunities to witness the power of God and Prayer.
Many times as you are ministering to the sick you wonder how much more a body can take.
Are we doing the right thing??
Over my career I have been witness to many miraculous recovery's. I very early on took care of a woman that awoke from a long coma and walked out of the hospital. At the time of her recovery we had given up all hope and had withdrawn her tracheotomy and feeding tube. This was my first lesson in not presuming to know the outcome for my patients.
I still struggle in my daily practice of nursing to know the answers to these questions.
Most recently I learned of my cousins son in a tragic accident. I admit when I first heard and read about it ,My faith in his ability to overcome the physical problems in front of him was very small.
As I read the entries of his wife and follow his progress I have been reminded yet again that God is in charge. These entries are truly a reminder of God's power in our lives.

I have learned to not only trust my inner voice ,but to listen carefully to my patients and their families.
As more demands are put on Nurses in their daily work life I think the ability to hear these voices gets more difficult. If you are a nurse reading this please make time to pray for your patient and have the Holy Spirit lead you in their care.
