Reflection

“I have waited, waited for the LORD, and he stooped toward me and heard my cry.” –Psalm 40:2

Prayer

Loving God,

Today we pray a special blessing upon all those who are sick, fragile, or weary. Use us, not only deliver excellent care, but also to surround those who are suffering with comfort, dignity, and hope. As patients and families wait before you through challenging times, strengthen them and all who walk beside them so that no one may feel alone. Help us all to rest in the assurance that we are seen, held, and loved by you, a God who cares. In faith, hope, and love, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action
