GLENDA
2 Timothy tells us: “For God has not given us the spirit of
fear.” In this verse, fear really means cowardice. God has
not given us the spirit of cowardice.
Evan Strong was the 2012 Para Snowboard World
Champion. He has won many gold medals for his amazing
snowboarding competitions. He participated in the
Paralympics in Sochi, Russia, last week. He did all this on
one leg. At the age of 17, he lost his leg in a horrific
motorcycle accident. His greatest fear was that he would
not be able to skateboard again. He asked the doctors to
save his knee because he needed his knee for
skateboarding. He not only relearned how to skateboard,
but he taught himself snowboarding. He competes in
mountain bike racing and he enjoys rock climbing.
What a role model for all of us when we think we have
nothing to look forward to. Evan had no fear. He just
changed his perspective and his goals. Remember Evan
when times seem hard for you. Have a wonderful day!
