Meeting my adopted family has been a transformative and fulfilling experience, as their
generosity and kindness have left a lasting impression on me. Initially, I felt a bit nervous, not
being accustomed to socializing with people. However, my worries quickly dissipated as I
discovered how easy they were to talk to and welcomed me with warmth and acceptance. Every
interaction with them is accompanied by cheerful smiles and laughs, creating a welcoming
atmosphere that has made me feel at home. Their genuine and open communication has been a
source of comfort, and I find myself eagerly engaging in conversations with them. Reflecting on
this, I am genuinely grateful for the bond we shared and created. I feel blessed to have chosen
them as my adopted family. Their positivity and warmth have not only helped me overcome my
apprehension but have also enriched my life, making our connection one that I cherish deeply.
Reflecting on the words of God from Mark 3:13-19, I am struck by the heartfelt idea that
Jesus calls and appoints individuals for specific purposes. The notion that Jesus spent a night in
prayer before making significant decisions resonates deeply with me. It serves as a reminder that
important decisions in life should be bathed in prayer, seeking God's wisdom and will. This
principle holds universal relevance, especially in the nursing profession. Nursing, too, requires
thoughtful and prayerful consideration in decision-making, whether it be in patient care,
leadership roles, or advocacy. The concept of being appointed by Jesus speaks to the unique
calling each person has in their professional journey. In nursing, this means recognizing the
appointment to care for the well-being of others, to be an advocate for those in need, and to bring
healing and compassion to those who are suffering. Just as Jesus appointed the twelve apostles,
the nursing profession involves a divine appointment to serve and make a positive impact on the
lives of others. This reflection encourages me to approach my role in nursing with a sense of
divine calling and appointment, seeking guidance in prayer for the important decisions and
responsibilities that come with the profession.
