Feeling the power of God

Coming from a developed country, I was sure that I would be the one to teach the Malagasy people how to live life. Fortunately, I discovered that these gentle, fun-loving people had a lot to show me about life. I learned some very important lessons during my stay. For example, how I should be happy with the simple things of life and not always try to strive for riches and material things.

My trip to Madagascar was an eye opening experience that I will never forget—God has worked some amazing miracles in a little hospital in Madagascar, and I hope that someday I may be able to go back and again feel the power of God working to change people’s lives.
