There was a man in a wheelchair and he was entertaining and invigorating and inspiritng my soul.


As he placed his hands on his useless limbs, he said, “Certainly I want to be able to walk again, but since I can’t rearrange my muscles to make that happen, I have rearranged my thinking. I daily remind myself of how many who can walk, walk as little as possible. Today all ages are obsessed with wheels; skateboards, bicycles, automobiles… And I, too, have my wheels, and they give me mobility, and because it is motorized, I can go faster than most people walk, and further without having to stop to rest.

But even when I could walk, I remember that I actually spent most of my time sitting. I worked at a desk, I watched television, I read books, I looked up at the stars or out at Mother Nature. I did a lot of living while seated, and I still can do all of that.

Sure I’d like to walk again…but my positive thinking has taught me to concentrate on what I can do, rather than what I can’t.”

With a chuckle he added, “I guess you could say about such thinking, I’m on a roll.” And we both knew how right he was.

Instead of asking Why? He had found his answer in asking How?

God will take us from the pit to the palace if we give Him a patient, persistent, prayerful person to work with. He really will.
