Carolyn Martin is 27 years old. She has cerebral palsy. Perhaps you haven’t read her book, I Can’t Walk so I’ll Learn to Dance. We have so much Carolyn can teach us if we are willing to listen to her.

    Here are some of Carolyn’s words in this lovely little book.

    “My voice sounds like I have a mouth and throat full of gravel. And when I sing, which I love to do, I sound sub-human. My scarecrow body lists to one side of my wheelchair and my rubber band neck sends my head bobbing every move I make.”

    Why does Carolyn have hope? Why does she have faith?

    Listen to 2 Corinthians 4, one of Carolyn’s favorite passages:

    “We have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed, perplexed but not in despair, struck down but not destroyed. We always carry about in our bodies the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our bodies.”

    Carolyn Martin has discovered the secret of trusting God everyday.
