liturgy for the end of a shocker

Bex Lawton shares prayers for us to use at the end of a tough shift

Today, as been one of the busiest shifts in my memory. It has been chaotic and unsafe.

Yet, this I call to mind. This I put on my lips…

'I believe that you are
Sovereign'

I put my trust in you.

Today, I have prayed for healing but then watched my patient deteriorate.

Yet, this I call to mind. This I put on my lips…

'I believe that you are
faithful'

I put my trust in you.

Today, stories of trauma were disclosed to me that have been disturbing and deeply distressing.

Yet this I call to mind. This I put on my lips…

'I believe that you are
good'

I put my trust in you.

Today, I have heard your name slandered and misused. I've heard your people mocked

Yet this I call to mind. This I put on my lips…

'I believe that you are
holy'

I put my trust in you.

Today, I have been shouted and sworn at. Disappointed and grieving relatives throw
hate at me.

Yet this I call to mind. This I put on my lips…

'I believe that you are
love'

I put my trust in you.

Today, I have doubted my ability to nurse anymore. At times I have doubted who
you say you are too.

Yet this I call to mind. This I put on my lips…

'I believe that you are the
one true God'

I put my trust in you.
