Reflection

“To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.” –Dr. Seuss

Prayer

Compassionate God,

We give thanks today for those who put themselves in harm’s way for our sake. First responders, emergency personnel, caregivers, physicians, nurses, staff, and custodians—all those who know the costs of showing up for work and yet still do it anyway. May they sense our gratitude deep in their hearts. And if they are ever tempted to feel their work is in vain, inspire them with the thought, that for the person they are serving right now, their presence and service can genuinely make a world of difference. For all the healing encounters they bring into this world, we give thanks. Amen.

Call to Action

Extend a word of kindness and gratitude to someone I know who has chosen to work for the good
of others.
