Reflection

“Joy is the experience of knowing that you are unconditionally loved and that nothing—sickness, failure, emotional distress, oppression, war, or even death—can take that love away.”
–Henri Nouwen

Prayer

Font of all joy,

The world is wanting for joy. People are waiting to hear they are loved, and loved unconditionally, simply for who they are and who you made them to be. Help us to serve our patients and families and communities with this kind of joy-filled love today. In all our engagements, conversations, and transactions, may we be extensions of joy, revealing a love beyond conditions. Amen.

Call to Action

What gives me joy these days? Make a date with myself to return to that source of joy. Enjoy it!
