National Doctors’ Day

Reflection

“Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity.” ~ Hippocrates

Prayer

God of care,

Perhaps more than ever, this year has taught us a profound appreciation for doctors, for those who practice the art of medicine. Despite the risk to self, so many physicians have stood vigilant on the front lines to combat a virus that has devastated so many lives in our nation and around the world. Continue to bless doctors with a kind and compassionate heart, with the courage to care and heal, and with the knowledge that they possess the gratitude of so many. May we never take our doctors for granted and may their courage and skill inspire us to reach out with compassion to others. With gratitude, we pray in God’s name. Amen.
