March 20, 2010 - 9:57 am

Posted in On My Trips | Comments Off

Well just back from our Israel/Jordan trip & it was awesome. Do to the economy we ended up with a small team, “the dirty dozen”. The dirtiest of the dozen is taking the picture.
We walked where Jesus walked, blessed with incredible weather, saw some new sights, but most importantly got to spend 2 full weeks, day & [...]

Here’s a picture of little Joseph who had a broken femur. Our doc’s put this cast & brace on him. Both mom & dad were killed in Port-au-Prince. Grandma is carrying for him now. He had been laying in the hospital hallway for a week & a half before we got there. One of our [...]

These poor kids many of them have to stay for 6-8 weeks here in the hospital. So…we can at least make them laugh, do a couple balloon animals, & pray for them in the name of Jezi! Below is Dave & Warren (Dr. Mango & Dr.Fou) Mwen fou pou Jezi! (I’m a fool for Jesus!)

Resting on the Word of God

The country is crazy enough when things are good but most phone lines are down or just over loaded.
Wow the U.N. has been incredible. We had 2 amphibious vehicles with 6 armed marines from Chile, Nepal, even Jordan that escorted us to HInche. The head commander has toured the compound, enjoyed Cindy’s brownies, & has [...]

Minor Cord

December 18, 2009 - 4:16 pm

Posted in On My Heart | Comments Off

Played by itself, a minor cord on a musical instrument is a strange thing. It is an emotional cord. It sounds darker. It it used when there is a change of scene, or change in emotion in the movies we watch.  And, you never end a song with a minor chord. I read once that [...]

Lesson from a knife blade

Posted in On My Heart | Comments Off

A year ago in Thailand my friend Stu was explaining Buddhism to our team. He used an illustration that it took me a whole year to understand. I felt like the disciples when they’d walk away from Jesus discussing what He taught, & missing it completely. The illustration Stu used was, “if you are holding [...]

A Lotus is a type of water lily considered a sacred plant in the Far East. It’s even the National Flower of India. Buddhism teaches 4 stages of the Lotus is similar to the 4 stages of growth of a Buddhist. The Lotus starts out growing in [...]

Back safely in Thailand & our trip was tremendous. I will find out tomorrow at a meeting what I can post & what I shouldn’t (pictures also). I don’t want to put anyone at risk so I need to ask a few questions first. But our medical Shock & Trauma Training went well. This is [...]
