WHAT IS WORSE THAN BEING CRIPLED?

I attended a human developement seminar the other day and the above question was thrown at us----the seminar attendees.

To answer the question,some said "blindness'.Others said "Madness'while some said ignorance and others said it is "POVERTY" etc

To answer the question,the seminar host referred us to an interview Larry king had with John Reeves on the famous programme "Larry King live "

In that interview,the renowned American journalist---Larry king threw the question at John Reeves { a crippled American athelete who got crippled as a result of injury sustained in the course of his athleticc contest}

The disabled athlete in answering the question made Larry king to understand that he does not feel sorry for himself because he got disabled in the course of doing something meaninful with his life.

Then he said,"Knowing what to do and being too scared to do it is worse than being crippled"

And if Reeves answer to the question is anything to go by,then a lot of people today are crippled because they already know what to do and yet they are not doing it.

So, the question is what is it that you are too afraid or scared to do and why are you afraid? remember,fear is false evidence appearing real.It is just an attempt by the devil to stop you from doing something meaniful with your life to benefit mankind and glorify God.

So when next you become too fearful to attempt something meaniful,remember that fear is false and is only intended to stop you on the way.

Though every mortal entertain fear one time or the other but winners do not allow their fears to immoblize them rather they conquer their fears and go ahead to win their "trophies' and so become successful and renown.

Lastly,befor i round up,i want to encourage yo to always have the benefits of what ever you want to do in focus and that will enable you to face your fears squarely and by so doing avoid being worse than a crippled.
