If God is love and we are suppose to be His hands and feet on this Earth, how can we simultaneously claim to love God yet hate our neighbor?
If anyone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. 1 John 4:20 ESV
Here is a simple rule of thumb for behavior: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you; then grab the initiative and do it for them ! If you only love the lovable, do you expect a pat on the back? Run-of-the-mill sinners do that. If you only help those who help you, do you expect a medal? Garden-variety sinners do that. If you only give for what you hope to get out of it, do you think that’s charity? The stingiest of pawnbrokers does that. “I tell you, love your enemies. Help and give without expecting a return. You’ll never—I promise—regret it. Live out this God-created identity the way our Father lives toward us, generously and graciously, even when we’re at our worst. Our Father is kind; you be kind.
Luke 6:31-36 MSG

So y'all know I love traveling. And y'all know I'm an OBGYN physician. And y'all know my parents are from Ghana, West African. Well why not put the three together: travel to Ghana and work in one of the local hospitals! We'll, I will be doing just that. This October I'll be going to Ghana to work in the OBGYN department in one of the hospitals I also worked at while in college back in 2010. Yayy!
