I have more kids now. I am teaching physician assistant and physical therapy students, and I am excited about this generation of medical providers. They are intelligent, passionate, and deeply concerned about their communities.
A blessing for clinical students of anatomy
May the beauty and intricacy
Of the human body fill you
With wonder
May its complexity,
The care with which it is formed,
Point you to the creator
Who cares for you with the
Same close attention
When you encounter disease and dysfunction,
May you honor the soul that carries this burden
In that moment, your work
Joins with the healing work
Of the Creator.
In the moment of creation, God declared the human-
in form and in spirit- to be
Very good
May your work, your words, and
your life
Humbly and powerfully
Honor God’s workmanship
As you join Him
In His presence here on earth.
