The Life of David Ring
This evening Fayann and I had the pleasure of going with some friends to a church service where David Ring spoke. It was a great experience and if you ever have the opportunity to hear him don’t miss it. What he has to say will most definitely change your life! If you can’t go see him, get his book Just As I Am at Emmaus Road Christian Store.
David Ring was born dead. For eighteen minutes after his delivery, his brain was deprived of oxygen, leaving him with cerebral palsy, a malady that affects his motor skills and speech. He lived the first fourteen years of his life totally dependent on the love and self-sacrifice of his mother. She was his motivation; his cheerleader. But when she died, he was passed from family member to family member, his confidence shattered and his hopes for the future, dismal. That was, until he met Jesus and his life became a dynamic challenge for all who call themselves followers of Jesus Christ. Just As I Am tells the story of this enthusiastic man. He has overcome gigantic obstacles, achieved things no one ever deemed possible - all through the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ. His life was changed, and yours can be too. People throw away broken things, but God uses them. Don't ask why, ask what can I become? When you ask why, you question God's authority, you become bitter. God loves you, and nothing happens that He does not ordain. At the burning bush God told Moses to put down his stick, but Moses wouldn't put it down. What is your stick?
