Reflection

“A problem is often half-solved when it is clearly stated.” –Dorothea Brande

Prayer

Caring Spirit,

We face many issues in life that seem to hold us in their grip, rather than the other way around. As a ministry, empower us to get a clear and firm grip on the issues around us that most deserve our attention. For the sake of our communities and neighbors, our patients and families, for all those who look to us as a sign of hope and healing. Give us clarity of purpose and a keen attention to the real needs of others. Help us solve the problems we can while accompanying all people with care and concern, no matter their plight. Amen.

Call to Action

Be the one on the team today who is willing to stop the momentum and ask if we’ve sufficiently articulated the problem at hand and that we need to address. Do we have it, or does it have us?
