True You: How to Overcome the Lies Your Different Abilities Tell You

Were you created with a physical or mental difference? Well, you are definitely not alone. In fact, one in four adults in the United States live with a disability. Maybe yours has even caused you to question God’s goodness or that He has a plan for your life. Today on True You, we’ll explain the importance of shifting your perspective when it comes to your abilities. Every one of us has something—physical, mental, or both—that we wish were different about the way we were created. But the problem doesn’t lie in our creation. It lies in our perception of that creation. God is able to reframe our thinking when it comes to what we see as our shortcomings. And the cool part is this: He wants to do it! On this episode of True You, we’ll show you how God has woven promise and purpose into every part of your being. Check out one girl’s story of learning to recognize her perceived weakness as one of her greatest strengths.
