I remember a time when I walked into a hospital feeling completely helpless. The fear in my heart was heavy, and all I could do was wait.
That’s when I truly noticed the healthcare workers around me. I saw the exhaustion in their eyes, yet they still showed kindness, patience, and strength. I realized then how much pressure they carry every single day.
That moment changed me, and I began to pray for them not just for their safety, but for their hearts to stay strong while they care for others.
