The Power of a Post It

I have to share a story my pastor told on Easter Sunday. I have not been able to get it out of my head and I know everyone needs to hear it!

My pastor has two kids, one an adopted little girl from China, and the other a little boy with a severe form of Autism. They are a young couple who has battled through a lot of hard times, but recently with the death of his wifes grandmother, and her mother in a wheel chair after battling cancer, he had been feeling very low. He felt his faith waining and he was looking for hope. He was feeling so lost and alone after making it across country with his two kids and going to the funeral. Then seeing his mother in law in her wheelchair was almost more than he could take. There he stood in his mother in laws kitchen feeling lost and he spotted something on her refrigerator.

About half way down was a yellow post it. When he got closer to it he could read the words: I WILL WALK AGAIN.

The words floored him. The total faith and conviction. He wept. He stood right there and cried as he felt his faith being restored. Then he realized the position of the post it note. It was just high enough to be put on by her in her wheel chair.

That night at dinner he had to bring it up to her. He said to her "you know, I saw your post it note, and I believe you will walk again."

To which she replied:
I'M ALREADY WALKING.

Everyone at the table cried. Her faith was unstoppable.

I share this with you, please pass it on. Remember, no matter how down you are, whether in a wheelchair or on your knees. Put that post it up. You will walk again.
Better yet, you already are.
