Have you ever felt afraid? Most people have. So, it is not
surprising then, that in the Bible the words "fear not" or "do not
be afraid" occur quite frequently. The God who made us, knows all
about our fears. This book reminds us that God is with us. The God
who helped His people in the past to face difficulties without
fear, will also help us if we trust in Him.
Paul Brand grew up in the Kolli Malai hills in India having his
lessons in tree branches and going from one end of the year to the
other barefoot and happy. He was determined never to leave India,
never to wear shoes and never to be a doctor like his father
especially to lepers. But before long he was on his way to school
in England, wearing shoes from dawn to dusk and fighting tooth and
nail against learning medicine. Years past, years with tragedy and
challenges until eventually Paul discovered that the God he loved
and trusted had the best plan for his life. Paul came back to India
with a medical degree and there were patients waiting for him
leprosy patients. From then on he devoted his life to their care
even to the point of making them special shoes Paul Brand s work
was influential in the cure and treatment of leprosy throughout the
world. This life destroying disease under Paul s loving care became
something treatable and manageable. Lepers no longer needed to be
outcasts. Paul s faith in God, his love for mankind and his medical
abilities gave those who suffered from leprosy a new life and hope.
