Abstract
FigureIt is a new year ... a time for establishing resolutions and considering how to address the challenges and difficulties we face. In 2023, top New Year's resolutions included improving mental health, boosting fitness levels, losing weight, bettering our diet, and improving finances (Davis, 2023). Although these represent excellent goals, there is often one major obstacle standing in the way of our finding success: the person we see each day in the mirror. Let me explain. I consider myself an expert at getting my own way. I believe I can accomplish much more in a day than is humanly possible. I become discouraged when I do not see results in what I define as a timely manner. I find myself distracted by all that needs to be accomplished within a day and begin to act in a way many would describe as responding more to the “tyranny of the urgent.” I can become caught up with all the “good” opportunities that cross my path, leaving me exhausted physically, emotionally, and spiritually. And, if I am being completely honest, I also have tended to resist areas of growth in my life because of the pain, failure, and difficulty that often accompany areas needing change. Maybe you experience similar barriers in your personal or professional life. As a child, I was taught I could grow up to be whatever I wanted to be if I worked hard enough. All I needed was the determination and grit to succeed. This is how many of us survived our undergraduate and graduate nursing education programs. We passed state licensure and certification exams. We sacrificed our sleep, health, time, and family. We questioned our choices and our value. But we pressed on. We simply needed to get this “thing” behind us. We told ourselves it would get better. Even though I was a believer in Jesus, I forgot my identity in Christ. I forgot my source of strength. I looked for ways to numb the pain and the difficulties I experienced. I became angry at God and questioned his presence in my life. Relationships became strained. I felt alone and isolated as I tried to rewrite my story by controlling who and what I could around me. This is where God in his incredible love continues to amaze me. God never turned his back on me. He continued to pursue me. He allowed me to experience the consequences of my choices, but he did not leave me alone on that journey. Like the shepherd who left the 99 sheep to go after the one that had wandered (Luke 15:1-7), I was found. And as I continue to follow God in the events of life and the challenges and mistakes I make, I continue to learn how to trust. What has changed? It is the author of my story. It is knowing I cannot trust in myself, but I can trust the one who made me. I hear God say, “I am the author of restoration. Let me write your story.” In him, I am whole. I am a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come (2 Corinthians 5:17). In him, I can grow and move through the pain, challenges, and difficulties of life. In him, I know acceptance, love, worth, and value. In him, I have purpose. You will see two new columns debuting in this issue. One column addresses the growing mental health challenges we face, and the second column focuses on the way God uses us missionally to share who he is with those in our communities and around the world. This issue also addresses disparities within our profession including diversity, equity, and inclusion within nursing education; the perception of nursing students toward the homeless; burnout; and moral distress among staff and novice nurses. Along with practical steps to take, you will gain important spiritual applications for nurses and the communities where we serve. You can experience renewed hope as you use the Psalms to deepen and enrich your prayer life. This is an excellent way to start a new year—recognizing our need and dependence in God for all we face.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
