And what about all the soldiers maimed in battle?
And what about all the soldiers maimed in battle?
Will each of their broken bodies be made to look "normal"? New?
Honestly I wrestle with this. I don't struggle with God's Word about Heaven. I struggle with our culture's definition of what is good. And what our goal is.
Those who are disabled accept help from others a lot of times. They are also more open and honest about their disabilities. They tend to live with a more vulnerable point of view.
Those without disabilities tend to be prone to live private, proud, and self-sufficient lives.
Hmmmm.....which life sounds more like God's plan for "loving one another"? John 13:34 Which life celebrates Psalm 139:14? "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
When you look in the mirror in the morning, consider who God Himself created you to be. Disable yourself of your agenda and surrender your handicap - yourself - to the life God has planned for you!
"His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence." 2 Peter 1:3
