8, 1988 Lord, I thank you for today. It is an exciting day, for today, somehow, I wil “become” a physician. When this day is done, I’ll be a doctor. A doctor - someone to whom people come for help, for comfort — someone who ma ' be responsible for whether they live or die. Lord, I’m not sure . . . Lord, I thank you for yesterday. Thank you for the call so clear and th( vision so bright to serve my fellow man through medicine. Remind me of thi purpose daily. I’m thankful for the strength and the discipline to persevere through many long nights of study and work. And for the ability and privilege to learn of the miraculous human body, I’m grateful. Thank you for the sup port of my family and friends who, in may ways, have worked harder anc sacrificed more than I have. I have not done it alone. And finally, I’m thankful for those who have gone before — the man pioneers of medicine, our professors, our teachers — who through the years have toiled and laid such a rich foundation on which to build. Such £ heritage strengthens and challenges me to be nothing less than a com passionate and competent physician. Lord, I pray for tomorrow. I pray for the patients I will care for, that man will be cured and that all will be comforted. May you ease their suffering Guard my family in the hours that I’m gone and may they share in the visior of my calling. Give them assurance of my love. Grant our profession insigh into the many problems we face so that every man and woman, boy and gir in all the world may have the care they need. And give us the wisdom tc conquer the diseases for which we presently have no cure — cancer, AIDS heart disease, Parkinson’s, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and so many more — so that the pain of the world may be diminished. And for our world, I pra for peace. Please lord, give us peace. And lastly Lord, I pray for myself. Make me strong, yet a servant. May I be conscientious, knowledgeable, and up-to-date while, at the same time compassionate, concerned, and genuine. Keep my motives pure. And if ever become too busy to care, take away the urgent things and replace them with the important things. And when I become a patient Lord, give me courage and someone who cares. May I be the kind of doctor I want to have. Lord, I know I don’t become a physician in a day. The job demands a more worthy and prepared servant. Instead, may I take this day to rest and cele- brate in the process of becoming. I have learned much. I have much tc learn. I have loved much. I have much to love. I have grown much. I have much to grow. Yesterday, I studied and served. Tomorrow, I will do the same. Only the responsibility will be greater. Lord, may I be worthy of the responsibility. Lord, may I be worthy to be a physician. Bobby Silver
