Out of the Blue


Out of the blue, this day.. I was told that I was not doing well at work... that things not good had been said against me... I felt sad...despite my hard efforts to be a good and patient nurse, I still fall short of their bar of excellence....

I feel humbled, I feel ashamed, I am brought down low... yet I offered this pain and sorrow at Mass a while ago... and together with our father Founder, Blessed Francisco Palau, OCD, i say "God allows my defects to humble me."

thank you Lord, for giving me this grace to be humble before You and to ask the grace to be more humble when I face You in my patients and their watchers... amen.
