My medical journey thus far

It's one heck of a rat race. It's thrilling, exhilarating, depressing and yet fills you up with life. When I was growing up, I always wanted to be a doctor. I have heard quite a lot about being a doctor at different stages in my life Earlier days, it was all fun and games. Doctors were cool. I wanted that. To save lives and be cool. Flash forward, a few years later. I still wanted to be a doctor. Only, I wanted it for a different reason. i didn't want it for the sake of the coolness. No, I really wanted to save lives.

When I begin to imagine what actually took place, my imagination seems to be so vastly limited. What could have taken place to erase an ancient bond to sin? What could have been done to free the whole world from the firm grip Satan had on humanity?what kind of sacrifice was made that surpassed all the Rams, bulls and pigeons that we're put down daily by multitudes for temporary cleansing?what kind of Blood was spilled that overcomes the devil and all his workings? What manner of Man is this? so pure and righteous, filled with power over life and death, and yet would willingly lay His life down for the sake of a sinful multitude who daily cry "crucify Him" . What's more, He knows them all by name. I have pondered over these things and came to two conclusions: ...
