I started singing and visiting churches at the early age of 3. I would stand up in front of the congregation and sing Jesus Loves Me. From that time on I knew this was something I wanted to do forever. As you might imagine growing up with a disability was very challenging. Often times I did not want to go to school knowing I would be made fun of, but God in His Grace blessed me with 2 loving Christian parents who encouraged me daily. My mom would always remind me of Psalms 139:14 which reads, I will praise thee: for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are thy works; and that my soul knoweth very well. My Dad would remind me to "Show them Jesus". At an early age I realized I was created to Glorify God, the same God who made me without any arms and with a short right leg.
Phillipians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
God continues to open doors and I sing at churches anywhere I am invited. It doesnt matter if there is 2 people or 12,000, because I know that God is going to bless whatever comes out of my mouth. Where He is, it is always amazing. After all, my life is Christ's, not my own. I know God has a great plan for my life and I am willing to go wherever He leads. He has put this desire in my heart to minister His love and grace through song and I will do this as long as it is His will.
