Hi Analise
I am a nurse I run a busy clinic for babies. The bilirubin clinic. I often find that I am also distracted during my prayer time thinking about things that happened at work. Thanks for sharing your struggles in your prayer
life. God bless you and strengthen you.

Dear Analise,you are doing the best you can with the time that you have.The demands on you are immense at the moment.God understands that and accepts your hurried and distracted prayers.
Continue to offer your thoughts and actions to Him throughout your busy day.Peace be with you.🙏🏻

Annalise, I know you get concerned about not giving enough time to the Lord because of all your duties in caring for others and your education. I believe God knows your heart and that He is in your thoughts while you do your work AND His work. You are like a parent who cares for her children while also finding a little dedicated time for God. Just know that all you do, at work or at prayer, is for Him.

Thank you for such an honest reflection and sharing your struggles. I know I struggle to keep Jesus as my focus at mass as my mind keeps thinking about the things to do, the things I’ve done and all the worries I have. But, remember Analise, your vocation is an extension of the Lord’s work. Offer up your work to him each day and throughout the day. He knows where your heart is.

Halfway around the world, yet I feel your presence when I read your reflections, as if you’re sitting right here. You are so honest. It helps me to look inward to myself. I pray for you always. Be good to yourself.

Thank you Dr. Analise. I always beat myself up for being distracted and anxious about my tasks,and not living up to whatever “it” is. I’m sorry you are struggling with tasks of the day but it helps to know I’m not alone.
