Martin Luther King Day
“All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance
and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.”
--Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
I remember completing one of our on-going training programs at the hospital and Dr. King’s quote (see above) appeared on one of the slides. It is a powerful quote and one that we need to incorporate in our daily life and thought.
As we labor in this global village, we are called to unity around the theme of excellence, an important word in our attitude toward our work and our lives. Regardless of our job description and place in life, each of us makes a contribution to humanity. Each of us adds to the fabric of our family life, our work life, our community life, and the world.
This is a new week. This is an exciting week in the life of our country. Let us undertake our work and our life this week with painstaking excellence. If we are committed to this, we will find the peace we all desire.
Prayer: God be in my words and in my deeds. Amen.
