Butterfly Effect



So I have been really busy with summer school!  I have a paper due almost every week, so I have not written a post!  I know, excuses, excuses, EXCUSES!

Well, I can say tonight I have something to share!  David and I went to New Life and the woman who shared was amazing.  She talked about the butterfly effect.  I don't know all of the details!  (there's a book ) In short: the air from a butterfly wing can start a hurricane. Something so tiny can produce something so big!  That is like when God called Ananias, a simple disciple, to minister to Saul, who killed Christians!  But, Paul became the person that impacted the church in a mighty way!

Sometimes the thought comes to my mind: How can God use little old me, "a simple disciple", to impact the world?  After all, I live in Chesapeake, Virginia.  Oh Yeah, and I am in a wheelchair!  I could continue with the list of why I don't think God can use me to do big things.  But I have to choose to push those to the side, because the truth is HE ALREADY IS!

I have a heart to minster to people with disabilities and their families!  Many times I don't have the opportunity to share the Gospel.  I just share my joy. I really don't believe being in a wheelchair brings me joy!  It is tough, to be honest, it stinks!  But I know it is temporary!  So I am choosing to say yes to God and surrendering my life to Him.

Spreading my wings to fly to impact history!!!!!!!!!!

  1. Love it. God is in the butterfly effects of our lives and in the things we do, and also in the Mothra or Pterodactyl effect when we go big. Either way ... love it. Well done, Angela.
