The hardest part about studying medicine

(1/2) > >>

Is learning about disease that are so heartbreaking to know exist. Especially the congenital birth defects that claim the life of an individual so young, even into their mid twenties, and knowing there is nothing a mortal man can do to heal these persons. It brings me to tears at time. It makes me feel selfish, ungrateful, ashamed, because my life appears so much more convenient and easy going. I know I am no better, more righteous, wiser, or more just than God to ever dare accuse Him of injustice, and yet I can't help but cry for these people who seem to suffer infinitely more than I do. It tares me up inside to think that most of them die without ever knowing there is a God who loves them so much (suffering with them), and for reasons sometimes I have to look past, has planned that they should walk this path in their experience of evil. Yet never alone or without hope. I can't help but think though that they die afraid and without hope in their own minds not knowing and having blessed with the truth as I do. Who am I? I can't help but cry... I am sad for them. I want them to know, I want them to be healed. It brings me to tears.

Yes is sad and hard to understand but all will be made well in God's time and none of us know what we may suffer from in the future. There are also those who seemed to know God but now say there is no God.

Praise God He has a 100% save rate.

You're right Rhys. I like to think of Jesus and how He wept over the death of Lazurus and the suffering it caused those who loved Him. I think of Jesus weeping when I weep over these things. It brings me comfort to know the God of the whole universe cries. I know He is love and I try to focus on that. His immense love, especially for the suffering and broken hearted, especially too for those who love Him.

A 100% save rate.... wow. Now there's a number I can get behind, especially as a physician! I can't wait for that day. I'm just so glad to have you all here to share in this experience with because sometimes it seems to much to bare and that my soul will faint. Thank you dear brother for being here with me.

I found this video tonight as I was thinking on these things.

As gandalf says: "Death isn't the end, only a path we must all take."

I think on that, death isn't the end, and this life is but vapor, a very brief moment in time compared to what lies ahead.

Every night I pray, "how long oh Lord? Do not tarry nor delay."

God bless,
Alex

We should be saddened by the suffering of others, even if there is nothing we can do, it's good to have compassion on others difficult plight.

But one thing I have thought about is Jesus healed a lot of people when He was on earth, Ray talked about that, everywhere that Jesus went multitudes of people came to Him and He healed them all. It seems to have been a big part of His ministry when He was on earth and I think it will be a big part of the elects ministry at the beginning of the next age as well. How wonderful will that be!

mercy, peace and love

It can't come soon enough Kat. I'm just grateful to know you all, to know God, to be apart of this all with you my brothers and sisters in Christ. Its hard, especially watching others suffer, but I know God is with us and for us and He is going to set all things straight. Waiting is the hardest part.

God bless,
Alex
