Glorifying God through my pursuit of a medical career.
Discernment is not simply a matter of telling the difference between what is right and wrong; rather it is the difference between right and almost right.
He that deserves nothing should be content with anything.
To go to heaven, fully to enjoy God, is infinitely better than the most pleasant accommodations here.
Resolved, to live with all my might, while I do live.
Resolved, never to lose one moment of time; but improve it the most profitable way I possibly can.

Unity of the Spirit

Comments
In Ephesians 4:1-6, Paul writes,
"Therefore, I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore yo to walk in the manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility, and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over and through all and in all"
The Christian on-campus fellowship at SUNY Downstate that I attend has been awesome. It's been an opportunity to meet up with other fellow Christian brothers and sisters at SUNY Downstate and to worship, study the Bible, and fellowship with them. Here, I've been able to meet many others who have a great love for Christ! It's also a great blessing to be able to talk with fellow Christians about their Christian walk in the context of medical school.

One challenge of such a student group is that we are not under the direction of a single parent church or shepherd. As a result, each of us come to the fellowship meetings with many different backgrounds in terms of our understanding of God's Word and the foundation of our convictions, let alone difference in our convictions themselves. As a result, some of the ideas contributed to discussions of scripture are inevitably incorrect, as I believe that scripture is not loaded with many different alternative interpretations, but that God had a specific intention for every part of scripture.  There can be many, many ways to apply scripture to our lives, but only one interpretation.
