A devotional written for every nurse, from the cardiac floor to the bedside of the quietly afraid.

Nursing is holy work.
In a world of alarms, charting, long nights, and sacred moments, this 365-day devotional offers hope, peace, and spiritual grounding for those who give so much of themselves. Through daily Scripture, story-rich 250-word devotions, heartfelt prayers, and guided reflection, Heartbeats of Mercy helps nurses reconnect with God's presence in the middle of real clinical experiences.

This Second Edition features new content, including additional stories, reflections, and prayers created to further encourage, strengthen, and support nurses in today's demanding healthcare environment.

Forty percent of the stories come from the unique world of cardiac care-
a feature included intentionally, inspired by the author's wife, Jen Bryer, a devoted cardiac nurse whose compassion, strength, and resilience shaped the heart of this book. This devotional honors the nurses who steady fragile rhythms, calm racing hearts, and walk families through their most uncertain moments.

Encouraging, soothing, and deeply relatable, this devotional is a daily reminder that:

• You are seen.
• You are valued.
• God is working through you in ways you may never fully realize.

Designed for quiet moments on break or reflection before and after shifts, Heartbeats of Mercy strengthens faith while supporting the emotional and spiritual resilience that nursing requires.
