"How can you be a Christian?" "Aren't you mad at God ... He made you disabled." These are questions and statements I've heard throughout my life. My answers are "Easy, Jesus died for my sins" "No, God did allow me to be born with CP, but he's using me in ways that I'm not even aware of understanding."
The first time I truly was aware that God was using me was when I went to college. I was a Sophomore and someone I really didn't know that well told me she had switched her major to Physical Therapy because of me. Then a friend went into Special Education because of me. This was overwhelming. I wasn't doing a thing but being myself.
There are many things I still don't understand but I do know that God wants me to reach out to other and encourage them, just He encourages me.
God has placed so many awesome people in my life and there is no mistake that the technology age can be used to share God's message and encourage other. I've been able to reconnect with long lost friends and through FB we have an immediate prayer chain. That to me is sooo awesome.
My prayer today is that this blog will reach many and provide them with answers or maybe just give someone something to ponder.
