Doctor's Life Support

Being a doctor challenges you to think about life and death because we are surrounded by it. There is only so much medical science can do, and being a doctor I realise that there is a limit to which we can heal. But most doctors neglect themselves, their own physical and spiritual needs. Anyway this site has a very relevant daily Christian devotions for doctors which I find very useful. Check it out and see.

"Medicine, in common with many other callings, is not an easy one in which to follow Christ. There are many pitfalls, and sadly some who lay their hands to the plough do look back and become unfit for the Kingdom (Lk 9:62). I well remember as a student attending a Christian Medical Fellowship breakfast in London where the speaker looked round the hundred or so medics there and said it was a hard fact of experience that in five years time not all of us would still be active followers of Christ. I prayed there and then that I would remain steadfast, and by God's grace to date it has been so. "
