Serving God and people in the community
Before the year ends, I would like to tell you a story of a man whose decision has impacted so many lives. There are so many lessons one can get from this short story and it is my prayer that as you read, the Holy Spirit ministers unto you exactly what you need. This is a short story about Dr. Phillip Plunk.
How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him who brings good news,
who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness,
who publishes salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.” Isaiah 52:7
I did not want to do this. In fact, I was avoiding this task by all means possible. This opportunity came to me some time in December when the director of SMI, Holly mentioned to a few group of students at my school about the opportunity to perform health screens and share the Gospel with the people in Philadelphia. Initially, I thought this was great and I would not mind doing that at all. Afterall, I have always wanted to integrate my faith with medicine.
