Bible Note: Amen Azure, and thank you. And thank you Doc. I once heard a preacher who had cerebral palsy. Who said to someone that had asked him; Brother, don't you want to be heeled? His response amassed and overwhelmed me. I'm paraphrasing But I think it went something like this: With His slurred speech, and twisted body, his response was deliberate and heartfelt. .. "Do you know, that God never says oops?... What's wrong, with walking, and talking, funny?.... Huh?".... "God don't make no junk. WE throw away broken things. Don't we? But God don't! ......... God uses, broken things!" Then they said. "But sir, your condition puts you in the disabled minority?" His voice went up a few notches. But you still had to listen carefully, because of his speech impediment. "I beg, your, ever, loven, pardon! You tell me, 'I', have a handy cap? You tell me, 'I', have a disability?... bullony!... bullony!... BULLONY! If God is for me. Who can be against me?... Huh?... I would rather be like I am, then a healthy man, that don't know the power of God! I would rather be like I am, then a healthy man, that don't know God's love in 'their' life. I thank God for how I am. What's wrong, with walking, and talking, funny?... Huh?... When I open my mouth, people stop, and listen, cause I talk funny. When you open your mouth... They just keep on going! Its a privilege to be the way I am! Not everyone can shake I like I do. why you aught to see the videos that I take! The only ones that can watch it, are people with cerebral palsy!:-) "I was made this way so that GOD could be glorified!" Well, I used to think I was broken to my friends, but one day, God touched me, and He made me whole. Then we may ask ourselves; Why did God allow John Newton to sink to such depths of sin and depravity?.......... So that GOD could be glorified! So that John could KNOW, the power of God, in his life. John Newton Knew that he was broken. John Newton knew, what it was like the feel God's love, and to Know, God's Amazing Grace, in his life. Do you? God bless, stj |
