Here’s something I like to aim to live by: "In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; and in all things, charity."

I have definitely seen changes in the last 10 years or so, not for the better. You’d have thought as more mainstreaming occurred, the world would open up a bit more for us, but “it ain’t nessa-sarily so”. I know this has been addressed before, but another thing that irks me about church, but also generally, is that we are seldom tasked with duties that need to happen.I asked the Lord this afternoon, “Since Jesus’ attitude toward women was so open and inclusive—why did He only heal disabled people, and not involve them in ministry?” “They (meaning, members of society at large) weren’t ready.” It is just sad to me that, while the vast majority of sighted folks that were excluded from various aspects of life have achieved great gains in gaining their rights (though the job is never truly done, and probably won’t be ‘til Christ returns), and we disabled are always the last ones to be validated.
