I can't talk enough about God

Hello my name is Jasper and I'm a quad.

I have no feelings in the lower part of my body at all. This may seem as quite an issue to some, but it doesn't worry me as much as I thought it would for I know and I believe that God is still in control of my life. Sometimes we all get thoughts that are not quite positive- I noticed that lately I've been getting thoughts that are not quite in line with what God wants. Thoughts of what I used to do in the past. I've been a quad for going on 5 years now- I haven't been able to even touch a female for those 5 years. I can't play with my grandchildren the way I used to. In short there are just a lot of things I love to do but can't do anymore. That gives the enemy an avenue in which to attack me through my thoughts. When I find myself thinking of relationships with females, I know it’s the enemy that’s taunting me. Then that’s when I remember that the Lord says, fornication is a sin in the eyes of God. This helps to keep my mind, my thoughts, on the right path. Thinking of things I cannot do anymore is another way the enemy attacks me but again I say God can do anything that he wills for my life. He can turn a situation completely around if he desires. I don’t worry about a lot of things. The thoughts that come are not only from Heaven, but are also thoughts from the enemy. I learned to separate and understand the two. Even though I'm physically challenged I still know that I am a blessed man. I still know that I have favor with God because of what he does for me each and every day. First of all I wake up at his will, I have the blessing of being in my right mind, I can breath, I have my eye sight, my hearing, and although I don’t have much movement I still can turn my head. I can move my upper body and that is a lot more than what some quads can do, and I thank the Lord for that. He starts me on my day. I have many people that I associate with and a lot of people that know me. I have friends, good friends that I have been with for some 30-50 years, and that is a blessing. I have a wonderful family. I have healthy grandchildren that I am able to see and show love. All of that is God's will for me. I have only him to thank because I could have been dead, but he chose to let me live. So look at the bright points in your life when you are feeling negative. It's only a ploy by the enemy to upset your life. Focus not on your thoughts, but rather focus on God. Praise and worship him and your life will be fruitful.

Again, my name is Jasper and I am a quad. Thank you.
