9 As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work.

It’s 1 : 44 PM on day 1844 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read John 10, publish my Disability of the Day feature, hang with Pamela Eapen, have breakfast, promote my Educate Generations campaign – Ancy donated $20 yesterday (thanks SO MUCH Anc I can’t believe we are the same kids who used to spend holidays together and talk at all hours of the night you are a blessing to the nursing profession 🙂 ) which brings my total raised to $5 177 with under 24 hours to go [I really hope to get to $5 250 before the end of today please God help] – and learn one new thing – The African buffalo differs from the domesticated water buffalo found in other parts of the world, although they both superficially resemble one another.
Yesterday I read John 9: 3 and I found it to be so true for my own life I am not the way I am because my parents did anything wrong I am the way I am because that’s the way things had to be for God to be able to work through me.
