Beautifully written, we often forget how we are the providers of Jesus’ will for our patients. You bring that will to the forefront

of your care. Thank you for sharing!

Beautifully written, as always, my good friend. So grateful for the application to medicine and to life at large. As a believer I'm comforted and convicted by your piece, Dr. J. Thank you.

I'm so glad that you are able to continue in your medical practice. Your story, confessing how the stress and strain of the E.R. has affected you, is revealing of the responsibility and dedication a truely good doctor must live with every day. You are very fortunate to have the depth of your faith and the ability to apply it to the rigors of your profession. And, I know that faith will continue to guide you in the years to come. You are fortunate indeed.

God bless,

Uncle Dave

Beautiful.

Most of us have experienced ebbs and flows of our faith through the years. It's only in the later phases of my career that I've really realized how profoundly my connection with faith (or lack of it at times) can affect my love of medicine and visible love for my patients. Thank you for this timely piece.
