Born without Legs, American Gymnast Believes God Did this "for a purpose."

"Born without legs, one would think Jen Bricker-Bauer would be destined for a life of hardship. However, the hand of destiny brought her an amazing adoptive family, who gave her one simple rule, “Never say can’t” and helped her forge a life of triumph, not tragedy. As a child, Jen was obsessed with gymnastics, and her idol was Olympic gold medalist Dominique Moceanu. Seemingly against all odds, Jen went on to compete against able-bodied athletes and became a State Champion in power tumbling—only later to discover Moceanu was actually her biological sister." from video introduction.


How do you handle adversity or disability? As a Christian God tells us that no what or who is against us He is for us. Are you easily defeated? God uses adversity, illness, and suffering to shape us to be like Christ because we won't do it on our own. Perhaps it's time for you to stop being discouraged and pray and ask God for a new outlook, a new attitude.
