It is profoundly understanding of the heavy emotional burden that accompanies this kind of work, its challenges and frustrations, and its great rewards. Arranged thematically, morning and evening prayers for 31 days focus on many practical aspects including Finding Strength, Giving Comfort, Listening, Patiently Persevering, Making Hard Decisions, Coping with Difficult Patients, Caring for the Dying, Enabling Growth. |
