Our Father's Love
Hello everyone! I just wanted to relate an incredible story about my NCLEX. So two days before the exam, I came down with a cold. The day of the exam came and I had "girl problems." All during the test my stomach ached and I didn't dare take extreme cold medicine in fear that I would be drowsy, so I coughed , sneezed , and struggled my way through 265 questions in about 5 1/2 hours. It was miserable and I had studied so hard for the last few months. I prayed to our Father in Heaven and pleaded that I would pass, and then something came over me. I tried to think of what my Father would want me to learn from this experience. I then prayed again, but this time that no matter the outcome of my test, I would feel comfort in knowing that it was HIS will and that my heart had come to understand it. Well, the waiting days were terrible. I thought for sure that I had failed, but found comfort in knowing that my Heavenly Father was comforting me and allowing me to learn from this. Well, this morning I got my results and I passed!!! To me, this was a miracle because I felt I could not concentrate whatsoever during the test. I guess what I am trying to say is that our Heavenly Father loves each of us so very much. He is aware of our strengths and our weaknesses and is waiting for us to make our will in accordance to His will. I know our Father lives and loves us, and I hope you all have an AMAZING day!

Kenz! That was an awesome testimony! And I'm still so excited that you passed your test!!! :) Love you tons! Come visit again soon!!!
Kenz,
Hey, this is Christine, I have such a similar story! The first time I went to take the NCLEX, I had just moved and everything was crazy, so I really didn't study so much and I got all 265 questions, too. And it was devastating to me when I found out that I had failed, but I prayed and my sister told me something that really helped. She said that maybe I wasn't supposed to work as a nurse this summer and that maybe there was something I needed to learn from this experience. I got a job doing home health for a little boy and I paid for the online NCLEX class (ouch!) and worked hard studying a little bit every day between work shifts and I kept rescheduling my test because I was so scared to take it again. But I finally retook it and before I went I had a blessing from my husband and it basically told me that it would be finished and Heavenly Father would be there to help me. When I was taking the test, I just felt so at peace and I passed in 77 questions. It was an awesome experience to go through, even though it was hard and I feel better prepared to be a nurse now because I was able to take my weaknesses and make them strengths. Anyways, I am glad to hear that you had an incredible spiritual experience as well. Will you be taking bachelor's classes in the fall? I would love to see everyone again and show them my good news! :) (we're expecting!)
