The story of this young woman interests me and I know it will bless you. Her name is Jessica Cox.
She was born in 1983 in Arizona, and she is the world's first licensed armless pilot, as well as the first armless black-belt in the American Taekwondo Association. She has two black belts in Taekwondo the last time I checked. She was BORN WITHOUT ARMS due to a rare birth defect. She EARNED her pilot's license in October 10, 2008, after 3 years of training, and is qualified to fly a light sport aircraft to altitudes of 10,000 feet; Jessica Cox flew in a single engine airplane for the first time via Wright Flight. She received her flight training through an Able Flight Scholarship, and soloed under the instruction of Parrish Traweek.
Cox has not used prosthetic arms since she turned 14. Using her feet as most people use their hand, she is able , among many other things to drive a car with an unrestricted license and she drives without modifications. She can type on a keyboard (25 words per minute), pump her own gas, put in and remove her contact lenses. She is also a certified SCUBA diver. Cox holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Arizona and she works as a motivational speaker, and has shared her message in over 18 different countries.
Jessica Cox rose up from physical limitations, and transcended her circumstances. The four leprous men also 'arose in the twilight to go to the Syrian camp despite bodily limitations. You can rise above limitations too.
You are inexcusable! Break yourself out of self-defeating cycle of repeated patterns and habits! Step into all that God has for you.
You will succeed!
