The Bible (God’s word) says that sooner or later ALL BELIEVERS will have to drink the cup of God’s wrath which makes total sense because I am Christ’s body and that’s what Christ had to drink. So coming from where I’ve come and now living in a wheelchair, I’d say that I have drank from that cup. And God is more real to me than anything else.

When I look back on my life on earth I have had many very good things happen to me which did not commonly happen for other people. So obviously God has been there for me.

I may live in a wheelchair but I am very blessed!

Luke 9:58
58 Jesus was curt: "Are you ready to rough it? We're not staying in the best inns, you know."

Going with Jesus does not mean that you will get the best of this world.
Luke 9:48
48 Whoever accepts this child as if the child were me, accepts me," he said. "And whoever accepts me, accepts the One who sent me. You become great by accepting, not asserting. Your spirit, not your size, makes the difference.

Your spirit not your degree…
Luke 9:23-24
Anyone who intends to come with me has to let me lead. You're not in the driver's seat — I am. Don't run from suffering; embrace it. Follow me and I'll show you how. 24 Self-help is no help at all. Self-sacrifice is the way, my way, to finding yourself, your true self.
Luke 9:20-21
Peter answered, "The Messiah of God." 21 Jesus then warned them to keep it quiet. They were to tell no one what Peter had said.
Luke 9:4
4 Keep it simple; you are the equipment.
