At this point in my spiritual journey, Kennady is probably the most meaningful person in my life. For ten years I have prayed that God would miracuously transform her into the normal human functionality. I made deals with Him, finally hitting on one that I thought would be just right and that He would surely honor. I said “God, Let her have the choice to love you like everyone else has, it’s her birthright as a human.” Of course, somewhere down in my mind I knew that if she could do that she would have all the other abilities inherant with that level of thought.
Then one day while praying for her, God spoke to my spirit and said, “I have given Kennady to those who love her as an example of what you are to become. Instead of asking me to drag her down into the fallen state of mankind, seek instead to become like her. She is perfected in me.”
Kennady is now my beacon of light, an impossible hope in my human state who beckons me on to attain that which we were created for, not becoming one with humanity but becoming one with our creator.
Bro. Rob,

Your words are profound beyond measure. Thank you for sharing. This has stirred my soul again. I’ve often wondered why humans, if created by God, have ailments and disabilities such as Kennady’s. God impressed upon me one time while praying about this, something similar to your words. God showed me that all His creation is made as it should be. Every person was created with His care and with His hand exactly the way it should be. While we as finite beings see someone who is less than whole, God sees a beautifully and meaningfully made spirit which will bring glory to his name. Love your family so much!
beautiful writing rob…
Wow, this was so enlightening bro Rob. Knowing Kennady is a source of light and through her God is seen and God receives glory! Thanks for sharing!
Wowza. Brought tears to my eyes, He is doing His healing, just not in the way we ask. Thanks for sharing.
