Inside An Appalachian ICU As Covid Takes Toll On Nurses | NBC News NOW

[cirenamrac]

“Heroes, angels, champions, warriors”. These are some of the titles we’d like to give to nurses when we describe them. But they are just your average Americans who take on extraordinary tasks under extremely stressful and dangerous circumstances. They have good work ethics and they are passionate about their job. They cry when their patient passes. They get sick themselves when the PPE can no longer protect themselves. They go home to their kids and their parents, and to carry more burdens from their private lives. They are ordinary but extraordinary people. They are nurses.

Everyone talking about how being in a lockdown will cause problems, I'm sorry to say but the horror and mayhem all those nurses and docs have to go through every day, seeing people die every day and still not believe... The PTDS and mental break downs in the future from the medical care professionals is going to be a whole different story... 😔 💔 Best wishes to all of you fighting the fight first hand 🕯️🕯️🕯️

[bm-rfbc]

Hospitals are killing patients. Only the brave few nurses that speak out and go against the nonsensical hospital doctrine deserve any of the labels that's been ascribed to the profession as a whole.

Why do they care more about teaches then??

Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.
“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi, ’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father, ’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted".
Matthew 23 NIV

You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything, in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

"If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from Heaven, will forgive their sins, and will heal their land."

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

This, then, is how you should pray:

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

"Matthew 5-7 NIV Bible Gateway", we can use google search.
These are the teachings,
The Righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ our God.
REPENT, and start doing what is right.
If you abide my teachings, you are really my disciples; then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

A time is coming and has now come, that the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and Truth. God is Spirit, so his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and Truth; they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.

In the New Heaven and New Earth,
only Righteousness dwells.
May the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ our God be with you all.

These nurses and medical staff are such wonderful people- only the Lord knows how much they are truly carrying in their hearts and their minds. I pray to the Lord Jesus that He will restore to them His joy for all the heartaches and the day to day sickness that they have to continually deal with. How can people say that it isn’t real? This clip has really woken me up more than anything and I will be even more determined not to add to their stress and wear my mask even when I don’t have to and social distance far more than I have been doing. This is an evil virus and it is like a war ground. God bless all the medical staff
