Admin	A question born of romantic frustration ... Posted : 24 Nov, 2010 06:25 AM What would you do if God sent a physically-challenged guy who doesn't drive into your life to love and be your husband? Would you accept that or fight against it? How would you respond if you knew in your heart that this guy was sent to you from God but he wasn't what you were expecting and dreaming of as your "ideal man" who is a man who ISN'T physically-challenged and DOES drive and the two of you can do all sorts of things on dates that require being totally physically able and can take turns driving your car(s) to go places and do things as husband and wife? Would you say "yes" or "no" to marrying this God sent guy if he lovingly proposed to you? Why or why not? Steve Post Reply

You seem to be asking ladies if we would marry YOU, specifically. If you are asking in general --- if one of us met a men with physical challenges and who was unable to drive -- if we would marry them? If that is your question...... well my answer is..... if it is the Lord's will and I was sure of it, Yes. Post Reply

My friend Annalyn (who incidentally, I would totally date if I felt God not telling me not to) is in a wheel chair, and her car is set up to be driven totally with her hands. Post Reply

Posted : 24 Nov, 2010 02:20 PM Tulip, the reason is financial ... years ago I went to find out about getting help to get training and learn to drive from the Bureau of Vocational Rehabiltation and I learned that they would help by paying for the hand controls on the steering wheel that the state of Ohio requires but NOT for purchasing the car ... and ALSO that whatever car you personally purchased or someone else purchased for you, it had to be one that was no older than 3 years old ... a car older than that which might be affordable to you or someone else buying it as a gift for you (like, maybe say ... Elvis, Oprah Winphrey or Ellen Degeneres ... might do for you ... though I'm sure Elvis, Oprah or Ellen would be able to and be happy to buy a brand new car) wouldn't qualify!!! ... so ... I was "stuck" with having to do without being able to drive because of these rules and requirements beyond my control and the lack of being able to myself or knowing or having anyone in my life who had the money either to purchase the right year model of a car ... otherwise ... I'd be driving like most guys LOVE to do ... preferably, in a cool classic Edsel!!! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::dancingp::dancingp::dancingp::rocknroll::rocknroll::rocknroll::hearts::hearts::hearts: Whenever God blesses me with the money for it, if I'm NOT too old by then ... you can be SURE I'll be out on the road too kickin' up some dust!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh: Steve Post Reply

Posted : 24 Nov, 2010 05:46 PM I feel God may put someone in my path for me to check out and consider but that God leaves the final choice up to me. However if I felt a spiritual connection to someone who needed extra care I would pray about that long and hard... before making a decision. Taking care of another person with physical needs is no party, and some days it can be very hard -mentally -physical, and spiritually. At this time I would pray that the Lord would NOT send anyone like this in my life because i already care for my dad, and I sure would not be blessed to have another man to care for in that way. I know All need, and deserve to be loved but it takes a special person to be able to handle some situations. I do not feel it is for all. * I had a girlfriend I went to bible college with who was married to a man in a wheelchair... and to be frank with you-she was a slave to him in many ways-I could see sadness in her eyes* But she always did her very best :) God is always our help in time of need.
