Reflection

“When we help other people, we establish an experience or a connection with them, but we also remind ourselves of the value that we bring to the world.”  - Dr. Vivek Murthy

Prayer

God of compassion,

In our work in healthcare, remind us that every act of care creates not only healing for others, but connection and meaning in our own hearts. Help us to see the value of the skills, love, and presence we bring to those who are sick, suffering, or in need. May each patient we serve, each family we support, and each moment of attention reflect your love and affirm the purpose you have given us. Let our work in healthcare be both a blessing to others and a reminder of the gift we are called to share in the world. In your holy name, we pray. Amen.
