Description
Excerpt from Introduction
After seeking God’s plan for my life, I felt He was leading me to go to a part-time position at the clinic instead of full time. It did not make sense at the time; we flat could not afford it. Why would I cut my pay when we could barely make ends meet as it was? But God knew what He was doing. I felt as if I was stepping off a cliff and, with my faith, Jesus would be there to catch me. As it turned out, two weeks to the day after I started working part time, a former co-worker of mine came into the clinic. I had actually worked under her at the hospital and loved her. She was always sweet and full of sunshine. She lit up a room when she walked in. She was now working for a hospice company.
You can probably see where this is going. She asked me how I was doing, so I started explaining, and when I told her I was working part time, the papers she had in her hand flew across the counter, knocking everything over. She stumbled over her words and asked me, in a whisper, if I wanted another part-time job. When I explained that I was only a licensed vocational nurse, she said “So what?”
That is where my journey of a lifetime began. I sent in an application and was hired immediately. Since it was hospice, there were so many different things I had to do before I could actually care for patients. There were physicals and a lot of orientation that I had to start immediately. As it turned out, I was able to complete everything by working a half day at the clinic, then doing orientation for hospice the rest of the day. If I had not been part time, there would have been no way I could have completed everything in the appropriate time frame. Funny how God is in control all the time, but we question Him when it doesn’t make sense to us. This is why I’m choosing to call this book Hospice of Faith. When I stepped off that cliff with faith, Jesus caught me and brought me where He wanted me to be.
It was an eye-opening experience when I was training for my hospice position. During this time I had the opportunity to meet a really great person. He was the administrator of our company and I was so nervous to have to meet him. I will never forget sitting across from him at his huge desk in his office. I already had the job, but I felt like I had to impress him. I was sweating and tongue-tied. He asked me why I wanted to be a hospice nurse. I gave my testimony and he seemed to like it. He then said the most shocking thing I’ve ever heard a boss say. He said “Christy, the most important thing to me is to make sure all of our patients have a chance to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior before they die.”
Read the book and find out how God led her to make a real difference in people's lives.
Christian hospice Nurse, Christina LaCross, shares her very personal stories of ministering God's love with her patients and their families. Be uplifted as you follow her through many challenging ordeals and gain a better understanding of hospice. Do you have spiritual questions about losing someone? Are you dying and need guidance? Reading this book might be just what the doctor ordered.
