Matthew 17:20

New International Version

20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

After the accident, I could have become angry and bitter, and I would be lying if I didn’t admit that I struggled with those emotions from time to time, but living in that dark place will not change anything, and I know I have a lot to be thankful for.

I am alive because God’s Will was for me to live! The car was crushed so badly that everyone thought I should have died, but God sees possibilities where man does not, and I am grateful to Him, because His plans are so much better than ours.

Although I am human, and far from perfect, I know that God saved me both the day I gave my heart to him, as well as the day of the accident.

It is God’s will for me to be here, there are still more Sunday School classes to teach and Lord willing, a family to raise. I am blessed regardless of whether I am able to have a family. By leading children to Christ, I can pass that blessing on to others.

In Christ, all I have to do is plant the mustard seed, cultivate it, and watch it grow. He will grow that seed into something great.
