Confession #35 Who Said Guy's Can't Thrift?

My boyfriend recently went to the Apple store to purchase a desktop. When purchasing MAC computers, it is recommended you set it up in the store. Because of how busy it was, there was no available representative to assist him after he purchased it. Soon or later, the manager pulled in a representative from the back to assist him. While the representative was helping him setup the desktop, he noticed the representative never looked up at him. The rep began to fiddle around for the keyboard and that's when he notice the rep was blind. 

His first thought was why out of all the customers in the store, he ended up with the blind rep. He began to get a bit frustrated. The rep never once made reference to his blindness. Once the rep began working on the computer, he handled it as if he had perfect sight his whole life. He setup the whole computer, his accounts, software, email, and more. Then it dawned on him. Here it is, a handicapped man can fully setup and operate one of the most difficult and high end computer machines with no assistance from no one.

Despite his handicap, this guy did not let it stop him from doing what he want. There is absolutely no reason for someone with full use of all his limbs and his senses to have an excuse for not pursuing their dreams or what they want to do in life. 

"Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth. He who gathers crops in summer is a prudent son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son." Proverbs 10:4-5
So what are your dreams? What do you aspire to do? Where do you want to be 5 years from now? What are you doing to get there? 

God wants to see you successful, as long as you have the right intentions. Take full advantage of everything and every opportunity God places in your life. This is your time. Use it wisely.
