Thomas Edison was almost deaf. Yet, he didn't spend all his time attempting to learn how to hear. Instead, he focused his energies on utilizing the abilities he did possess: thinking, organizing, and inventing.

Edison once said, "If we did all the things we were capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves."

Are you so focused on what you can't do that you're not letting God empower you to use the talents and abilities which you do possess?
