At peace

I am writing my final Haiti blog post from my desk at home. I sat down and was greeted with one of my favorite verses from Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all you heart and lean not on your won understanding; in all you ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight." I need to trust God to continue to rebuild Haiti and hope that many have become believers working to overcome the corruption of the government leaning on God for guidance and strength to begin to rebuild.

I am so greatful for my experiences. I have certainly been stretched as a medical practioner and a believer. We finished out the week with knowing that we had seen 5,000 patients at the stationary clinic and the mobile clinic/bus had seen an additional 2,000. That is an incredible number of people who received care. Be it tylenol for a fever, antibiotics for an infection, care for a wounded limb or even a wounded heart we were there to serve the people of Haiti. I looked into the eyes of the people of the poorest nation in the western hemisphere knowing that I served "the least of these" and saw Christ in the eyes of those I loved.

Thank you for your love and support as I left the comforts of home and the ones I love here in the states to serve. Please continue to pray for the Haitian people and for the opportunity to serve further. Next time Alan is coming with me :)

Blessings,
Cassie
