Purpose, People, & Prevention: Thriving in Public Health With GodSample

Day 1: Purpose-Driven Public Health

Scripture:

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” – Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

Key Fact:

Public health isn’t just a career—it’s a calling. From reducing disease to promoting equity, it centers on serving others for the greater good.

Health Tip:

Start with self-care. Public health professionals need strong mental, emotional, and physical health to serve effectively. Schedule regular breaks, hydrate, and protect your peace.

African Proverb:

“He who has health has hope; and he who has hope has everything.” – African Proverb

Prayer:

Lord, thank You for planting in me a passion to protect and promote health. Help me walk in purpose and lead with compassion. Renew my strength daily as I serve others. Amen.
