Self-Care

Reflection

“An empty lantern provides no light. Self-care is the fuel that allows your light to shine brightly.”
~ Author Unknown

Prayer

Loving Lord, a person who’s well is empty cannot provide water to another. Help us to see that self-care is not selfish but rather a critical dimension of our ongoing commitment to serving others. Open our hearts and minds to your presence that we might be renewed in body and spirit, able to answer your call to compassionate care. Grant us the wisdom to authentically care for ourselves that we might better embody your love for all. Amen.
