Welcome to the Blog!

“Taste and see that the Lord is good...”
— Psalms 34:8

I'm so happy to have you and hope you enjoy your journey.

God has started me in such a beautiful journey.  Within a short period of time I realized that this journey was not only for me.  It was a gift that was meant to be shared.  So come with me in this journey.  Let us discover God's goodness together.  Share your thoughts and questions.  Everything that I post will come from an experience or a revelation that God has given me as I walk hand in hand with Him.  I don't presume to have God figured out, but God has called me to talk about what He is doing in me.  Each blog will be a window into the steps of my journey.  My hope is that you may enter into your own experience with God and that you may know Him.

That Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures.
1 Corinthians 15:3-4

Fundamentals

God says in his word, "As the Heavens are Higher than the Earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:9. God says this in the context of mercy and forgiveness.  His mercy is higher than our mercy.  His forgiveness is higher than our forgiveness.  Because of lies that we have come to believe, we have difficulty explaining the world around us with the truth that God is good.  God wants to make His goodness known. He wants to set our heart free to receive His love.  Discover the God of love that your heart longs for!

 

“‘For I will restore you to health and I will heal you of your wounds,’ declares the lord.”
 Jeremiah 30:17

Medical

Why all the suffering?  Is God powerful?  Is God in control?  Does God still heal?  Does God still care?  Come and walk my journey with me as the Lord reveals His goodness, His power and His love to a world that needs Him.  God impressed me with this thought, "I didn't send you to protect my name.  I sent you to PROCLAIM my name."  These are experiences from a physician who has worked in the emergency room and with patients who have addictions and chronic wounds.  

 

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe.
Ephesians 1:18,19

Health

Even though I am a physician, I am still learning new things about what is health.  What is the Truth about Health?  This section is an invitation for God to continue to reveal His mysteries about health and wholeness to me and to you.  I am excited about what we will discover!

 

Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity.
Colossians 3:14

Family

I was sitting one day at a family get-together looking at everyone laughing.  Kids were playing and people were enjoying each other.  I thought to myself, "Is this Heaven?"  I think family is what Heaven is about.  We are sons and daughters of God.  God is our Father and Christ our brother.  When we are in Heaven, then we will finally all be together.  It was for relationship that God made us.  To be in relationship with Him and with others.  "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it.  Love your neighbor as yourself." Matt 22:37-39.

 

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of god.
ephesians 6:17

Scripture

"So is My word that goes out from My mouth.  It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it."  Isaiah 55:11 Shall we discover the desires and purposes of God?  When we discover them, we can believe in them and His word will be accomplished and achieved in us. What a solid and wonderful promise!
