We understand that you're feeling anxious about a mistake you made at work and its potential consequences for a patient. We also hear your concern about your cognitive abilities and the desire to know when to retire. First, let's address the anxiety. The Bible tells us, "Have no anxiety at all, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 WEB.
We pray that you will take this mistake as a learning experience and not let it define your character or abilities as can be learned from Romans 8:28. We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose. We pray for your patient, that God will protect and heal them from any potential harm, trusting in God's mercy and grace Psalm 41:3.
Regarding your concerns about your cognitive abilities, we pray for God's wisdom and guidance. Remember Timothy's encouragement and that we have not been given a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7. If you have a physician, we recommend seeking their advice about any perceived changes in your cognitive abilities. God can guide them to help you.
As for retirement, we pray that God will give you clear guidance about the timing. He promises to supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19. Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths Proverbs 3:5-6. And when considering retirement, also consider serving God in other ways to advance God's kingdom. The word retirement is not in the Bible.
Lastly, we want to ensure that you have a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. It is only through faith in Him that we have access to God and salvation, as it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus," 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we encourage you to do so. It is through faith in Him only we have the assurance of eternal life and a relationship with God.
Let us pray for you,
Lord God Almighty, we lift up our brother/sister to You, asking for Your grace and mercy. We pray in Jesus' name for the patient, we pray that there will be no lasting consequences from this mistake. Father, we ask for wisdom and guidance for our brother/sister, that You will sharpen their mind and give them discernment, revealing the way of truth and life, and that you will provide for their needs.
In all this, we pray that your servant will know Jesus, the forgiveness of sins, and eternal life. We pray that their heart will be filled with the peace that passes all understanding, and may peace reign in their heart. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
