Abstract | Living with a disability poses problems beyond the physical limitations that the disability itself creates. One must face challenges to one's place in society, one's self-esteem, and even one's faith. It is therefore important to develop certain inner strengths in order to deal with these challenges. By facing squarely the psychological and spiritual issues that having a disability raises, one can use one's experience to develop this inner strength and even to deepen one's faith. A consideration of selected passages from the Bible is an aid in exploring these issues. |
