It is easy to let the voices of others dictate what we can and cannot do. Too often if people tell us we can't do something we believe it. However, there are always people that are poor listeners and usually it is to their benefit.
Zach Anner lives with Cerebral Palsy (the sexiest of palsies as he claims) and though he is confined to a wheel chair, he does not let that stop him from following his dream. There are two things I love about Zach: 1) his quirky sense of humor. A man after my own heart. 2) his no holds barred attitude.

Likewise, we as people of faith need to push aside the barriers people set up as there is nothing that can keep us from living out the calling God has for us.
