I recently attended a conference for Christians in the Medical profession in Sydney, Australia and it was truly an experience.

We had medical students and Junior Graduates from about 58 Countries from around the world who attended.

The main theme for the conference is "Health and Hope" and it was a time of inspiration and motivation by some of the world's top notch doctors. They spoke on how, as medical officers, we can be the "salt & light" to a dying world - not only attending to their physical illnesses but also to their spiritual illnesses.

One question asked was the motivation behind you being in the medical field. The answer was found in the Bible: " The love of Christ compels us.."

I would encourage any medical students or junior graduates or even medical officers out there to get networked and connected to Christian medical officers around the world and learn from each other's experiences.

"We treat the patient, but Christ brings the Healing"

God Bless

Coming for a developing country, the uprising of HIV and AIDS is a problem. After reading the book about a man who finds himself stuck between his family and brother who is HIV +, and how he overcame all the stigma and discrimination.... it makes me wonder how life is so easy and gets complicated if we let it to be.

I have alot of this where i work. My work mates are either selfish or greedy in terms of knowledge.
Does this happen everywhere..? I mean, i'm not the type of person who would be greedy with my knowledge. I love helping people and making sure they are happy with what i have given them, even if its small. There are times when it seems as if i do not exist in the workplace.

I find it hard to work with youth who are shy and are not opening up or speaking about what the are facing in life or what they would like. What should i do?
Help needed here.
Peace
