Disheartened

A statement from her caused me to feel disheartened. I have only been with the company for close to 6months now (officially 6 months after 9 July), however, I have already taken 3 days of sick leave. It looks as though I was not genuinely sick enough to warrant a day of rest. I mean, isn't it human to fall sick? With the stress of trying to meet census, coming into contact with countless of patients, lack of sleep, erratic weather etc. With just a day or two of rest, can we not have it? She seems rather anal especially when it comes to leave taking. If a staff is not fully rested, how then can we perform to the best of our ability - trying to see as many patients as possible with limited manpower?

I really don't know. Thankfully, listening to what Pastor Prince preached about the sermon, "The only battle that you have to fight today is the battle of rest" on my way to work, I feel rested spiritually and ready to take on the world. Bring it on!

Praise the Lord for Psalm 23 too.

Psalm 23 reads:
The Lord is my shepherd I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters;
He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for you are with me; your rod and staff they comfort me,
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows
Surely goodnes and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Such a lovely verse to remind me of my Lord's great love.
