Reflection

“The more peace there is in us, the more peace there will be in our troubled little world.”
–Etty Hillesum

Prayer

Source of all peace,

Today we choose to be agents of peace in your name. For the patients and families we are privileged to serve, for our colleagues and partners in this ministry of healing, and for the wider communities you have sent us to bless and protect. As we do so, may each one of us be given at least some opportunity, however brief, simply to pause before you and surrender our hearts to your goodness and grace. May we be filled with your divine peace—a peace beyond understanding, which we can then share meaningfully and powerfully with all those in need, especially the poor, dying, and underserved. Amen.

Call to Action

Take a moment to recommit to the cause of peacemaking in my work and ministry. Embrace my invitation to be an agent of peace, especially for those in need.
