I find it interesting that I know of...Thanks Renee. I find it interesting that I know of at least three readers of this blog who were medical doctors before having a family. There is certainly a culture in medicine that can make that career an idol, and whilst seeking to achieve something good (improved healthcare, scientific advances, caring for patients and their families at their time of need) there can be a pressure to neglect our even greater responsibilities to our own families.<br /><br />Thanks also for the reminder about how relatives can be unhelpful. I hold on to the fact that Jesus said that those who have left homes, families, work, etc for His Kingdom will receive a great reward from Him.<br /><br />KondwaniKondwanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02290415492637315025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1106847383189293536.post-61810721707134210842014-06-14T16:09:11.099+01:002014-06-14T16:09:11.099+01:00Amen,
When I left my career in medicine, I did so...Amen,<br /><br />When I left my career in medicine, I did so because God was showing my husband and myself that our children our our heritage and that we should apply ourselves in Him to be fruitful, multiply, replensish the earth and establish the DOMINION of JESUS CHRIST. People have lost sight of their spouse and children as the means by which God will belss lives and that as a unit we can be productive through Him. As you mentioned relatives can be really divisive but Jesus himself said He cam as a sword. I appreciate your testimony through this blog and may God bless and keep your family.<br /><br />My email is Renee@bread-and-water.org should you feel led to get in touch.Reneehttp://www.bread-and-water.orgnoreply@blogger.com
