Change in plans...

Well...it's been a pretty crazy couple months at school (work) and just in general...After much thought and prayer I have made the decision to go back to school to become a nurse. This is quite scary for me, but exciting too. At first when I began to think about this I felt as though the last 6 years were a waste. I have realized though that God has had me in the place where he wants me. And if I hadn't gone into teaching I wouldn't be here. Like God shows us in the book of Esther, He has a plan in everything. I am really excited to be going back for the field that I am. Yes, the money will be better when I get my degree, but that's definitely not the top reason for me to go into nursing. First, the human body and health field has always fascinated me. I had actually contemplated switching into nursing when I was in my 3rd year of my bachelors degree. To study the body and see just how amazing God is in his creation. About half of my friends in college were pre-med, and so I got a lot of exposure to the health field. I have also really thought about what has impacted my life in a positive way. I have encountered nurses because of family and friends and have seen in them something that I want to be able to do. I want to be able to care for people...and with nursing I also get to involve an area that I love.
