Life & Living
The two children mentioned in my previous posts have both recovered and were discharged from the pediatric ward! Thank you for you prayers! I’m always encouraged to see children make drastic recoveries, and I thank Jesus for his grace and mercy in allowing them to recover. Unfortunately, for every child that recovers there are more that are just as sick and many that do not survive.
I’m continuing to discover my daily role and schedule, and I’m starting to see more adult patients in addition to the kids. There is a physician assistant student from Arcadia University, Dan Thrush, whom recently arrived and is inspiring me to learn as well. I just hope I can teach him something in return!
I am increasingly aware of my growing desire to share and show love, mercy, and grace to the people I encounter each day. I enjoy medicine, but it is not my primary focus. If I help heal a sick child, but they do not know Jesus, what is the impact of my role? I absolutely see the need for medical care, but more so, I sense and want to be involved in sharing Jesus’ love, mercy, and grace. I desire to help heal broken souls, spirits, and health. I’m so very thankful for the opportunities God has given me, but I know there are other opportunities I am missing. I pray my eyes may be opened to those around me.

I saw how to give yourself to people, especially kids; that is a way to show Jesus Love.
Scott never doubt that you are making a difference in peoples lives, you are a blessing for anyone you are in contact with.
When you became broken in Christ and poured out your life for others, you have been granted that amazing power from God, which will flow out of you to heal broken souls and mend shattered dreams. You and the people whom you love and serve will always be in my prayers.
