When Doctors Come

Indonesia has difficult rules for foreigners who are Medical workers.   But for now, offering consultation or medical advise is still allowed.   Dr Jim and Mrs Barbara Anderson are a warm and caring couple in the retirement years of their life.   I’ve often heard it called the Sunset years of life but for them I believe it’s the Son-Rise years of their life.   They exude Christ’s character of Love to all people.   When Pastor Evans inquired if the Andersons would like to come and do nightly health talks I had no idea what a positive and dynamic couple this was.  

Each morning the Andersons finds positive things to say.   Each meal time they always find positive things to say.   Barbara is especially good at this.   That kind of positive energy has a way of spilling over to everyone.

Dr Jim is 81 years young and yet has the nimbleness of a much younger man. 

Each morning Dr Jim  and Barbara (who is 77 years young) go for a morning jog/walk.   With smiles on their face they greet each person.   You cannot help but love them.

Barbara helps teach the children in the nightly meetings.   And its with a huge smile and the energy of someone half her age.

Thanks for coming and sharing of yourself in such unselfish ways.   May others follow your positive example.   May your tribe increase.
