As we are closing up our time here in India we are doing a
bit of debriefing. Yesterday, we sat around and told testimonies of things God
has been doing in and through our lives over the past 3 months.
All the glory to God who has used us in mighty ways.
There are so many testimonies that I could share. Little lives that have been raised from
the dead. Salvations. Miracles. Healings.
We’ve seen it all.
In and out of the hospital.
We’ve worshipped in the streets and interceded in the
corridors of the hospital.
We are a team of midwives, of healthcare providers- but God
has not limited us to serve only in healthcare.
We have delivered 218 babies
We have prayed for 4,688 people
And shared the Gospel with1416 people
We have received 10 little ones into this world who
never got the chance to take their first breath.
We have held the hands of a many more mothers as they wept
over their loss.
We have labored in pain.
We have welcomed God to be apart of deliveries.
We have claimed life for God’s Kingdom and in faith we have
prophesied over these little children.
I believe we have been able to take part in welcoming a new
generation. A generation that could change India.
We have also had the opportunity to work with a wide range
of other healthcare providers. We have worked alongside obstetricians and
gynecologist who have been in the business longer than I have been alive. We
have worked with superintendents, postgraduate doctors, surgeons, pediatricians,
nurses, lab technicians, interns, EMTs, medical students, and everyone in
between. We have had the opportunity to share the love of Christ with these
people as well. We have failed at times. But we have also succeeded. And even
if we have influenced just one healthcare provider in this nation to rely on
God, to work by His strength and not their own, to provide good healthcare…
then its all been worth it. This is fruit that lasts.
It’s not just the immediate catching of babies. Suturing a
wound. Praying for a doctor. Holding a hand. These things have been powerful in
the moment. And we’ve done a lot of it. But we’ve also planted seeds. And we’re
hopeful that they will continue to be watered and nurtured and they will grow.
And India will be changed and look more like heaven. That’s
my hope.
Thanks for all your prayers!
