I have just listed a few personal thoughts, which in turn could be taken as the
motivational factors for this project.
we would greatly appreciate your comments
on the same. Thank you.
FACTOR 1
we have a deep desire to get to know the heart of God
as revealed by our Master Jesus Christ. I repeatedly ask myself whether I, who
claims to be a believer in Jesus, really believe such statements of the Bible
such as "Seek ye the kingdom of God, (loving God and loving others)..." and
all the needed things will be added unto you, and do not store your treasures here where it will ultimately be dissolved but seek eternal treasure?
I have realized that the best service rendered to Him would be to serve those who are outcast and need help.
(Matthew: Chapters 6 & 25) we
do not consider this
work in any way a challenge to us- it is more a challenge to God, provided we are faithful! I can confidently say that He has taken up the challenge and has been extremely faithful in spite of all our shortcomings.
FACTOR 2 we
are not alone to weep in silence about the declining reputation of most of the
Christian mission hospitals which were once the role models for medical
missionary work. While God asks us to proceed with the values of His kingdom and
promises that other things will follow us, we have just reversed the whole
issue and are after money with the explanation that we need it to be
effective and competitive!! we have had the painful experience of being
questioned by our revered Bishops, "What is the turnover?" "How much do we
earn?" etc. we had often been pushed into the
heart-breaking circumstances of referring patients to organisations that are able to
cater quality care without any charges and we do make such huge hue and
cry over their faith and conduct. What is the use of mere
statistical evidence of increasing church membership? There are plenty of opportunities yet open for expressing the love of Christ
and expending our expertise that we all claimed to have received free ---so God-willing may
many take up this kind of challenge and thereby see for ourselves how amazingly true His words are. THE ULTIMATE DREAM
- To be different - 1) When the community is losing faith in the medical
profession and is scared of being exploited, we want to give them a chance to
exploit us – giving them the opportunity to drop the ‘bill’ in the offering
plate and we deeply desire to co-ordinate with willing mission and government
setups to offer the best service with
the least expenditure. 2) To offer medical care
comparable with the corporate hospitals with a basic difference a) by not making
any monitory demands b) by defining who our VIPs are -namely the widows, the fatherless and the oppressed.
Let us mutually encourage each other and share the peace and joy that God
gives us. |
