    Lord Jesus thank You for loving us so much that You left Your throne in Heaven to experience human suffering and die on the cross for all our sins. Praise be to God that You rose from the dead. You weep with us when we weep. You rejoice when we rejoice. You feel our deepest pains and sorrows and give us a peace that surpasses all understanding. You wipe every tear from our weeping eyes. You intercede for us in prayer. We are never alone because You walk with us all the time. You carry us in Your arms when we are too weak to stand on our own two feet. You are our eyes when we don't want to look at the mountains before us. Our ears when we can't bear to listen. Our mouth when we can not speak the right words. Our Strength when we are weak. Our Hope when we are in despair. A Friend that sticks closer than a brother. What A Friend we have in You Lord Jesus! In the mighty and glorious name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

    As teacher of Special needs children I wept listening to you my dear. You are amazing just the way you, are being blind is just a label it doesn't define who you really are. You are capable of anything life throws at you. So called normal people tends to think that because you have disability you can't do what they can. Continue trusting in God my sister and know that you are loved.

    I am so sorry for the hard times you went through in school!!! I am so glad your mom's words through the years stuck with you. Christian mom's just know. Mine told me, in the middle of a very nasty divorce and custody battle-all because I have Lupus--to Pray that God would make me the mother He would have me to be. I prayed it-not much feeling at first---I was too beaten down!! But I kept with it and soon I felt God's presence in the prayer. I grew much stronger, both in the Lord and myself. My sons are grown now with families of their own. I still pray that prayer. I am 62 now and the Lupus has now taken a very large toll. My parents were a great help. They both went home 4 months apart in 2014 after 73 years of marriage and serving Jesus.

    I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus give us eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart to believe. Help us not rely on the physical but the spiritual senses you have given us. Lord, you help us see beyond what is physical- in you we can see what isn't visible. You see us as we are and we are blessed to know you take care od the vulnerable; because God we all are vulnerable. May we be open to you Father as we embrace a life of freedom, truth, and purpose in your leading and guidance. In Jesus name Amen.

    This devotion touched my heart, & I wish I could be Ginny's friend. I understand being different, I've always been very tall & thin since I was a young girl, plus some of those years I had buck teeth, until braces at the age of 12. Ginny is right kids can be mean, I wish I would've known Jesus then, our friend whose closer than a brother. 🧔 😍
