I'm a general pediatrician in Tampa, and have been on a few short term missions- to Haiti, Egypt and South Sudan. Initially, it was all about just medical care- and I exhausted myself seeing and caring for as many patients as I could. I didn't think I was good enough or qualified enough to share Christ with others. But then my life changed, with a deep experience of God's love for me.
At my last mission to Africa, I started to get opportunities out of the blue to share my testimony, teach the Word of God and to counsel those who had not yet accepted Christ. I was amazed at what God could do with someone like me. I'm looking forward to future missions, not just to use my skills- but to share the wonderful love that God has for me- in that, He gave up His only son Jesus, who died on the cross so that I may live.
