“It’s amazing how God can use us when we surrender our lives to the Lord,” says Mary Broeckert, M.D., in her book Present and Powerful: A Testimony of God’s Working in Medical Missions.
“At the end of hearing challenges about going into missions, both my husband, Hubert, and I answered, ‘Here am I, Lord. Send me,'” Dr. Broeckert writes in the Summer 2023 Baptist Bulletin.
“Then as God made His will clear that we were to go, we knew we were not sufficient for the task. . . . But God lovingly spoke through His Word, reminding us that He was eager to show us His path for us, as well as His victories.”
In Present and Powerful, read about “God’s faithfulness in the author’s life in distant places, in medical work in resource poor settings, and in the variety of ways God worked to bring people to Himself.”
“Gratitude wells up in my heart to our Heavenly Father, who is always with us,” Dr. Broeckert says.
Now retired, she encourages believers to “joyfully entrust their lives to God’s faithful hands and know His presence and power as He takes them anywhere He chooses.”
“Truly, He is God, present and powerful, and we can joyfully entrust our lives to Him.”
