disability and the church//
if we say our mission is to advocate for and include the marginalized, why are those with disabilities so often displaces from the very organization claiming to include all people?
if we say we desire to be image bearers, does the image of God not also include those with unique needs and abilities?
if we profess our desire is to be like the Father, does that not mean we should also desire to have his heart? we ask God to break our hearts for the things that make His heart cry and yet we refuse to see those God so clearly has his eyes upon.
if we ask to be made like Him, does that not require humility and refining?
God calls us all to Him. that means everyone.
let us not be a hindrance of what He has already done.
