In January, a friend, who is very important to my husband and me, proposed a challenge for the new year. He said, to do something nice everyday for someone and gave a few examples on how to do so. You remember Oprah’s random acts of kindness, right? Well, I thought about it and said, “I was raised this way, It is in my nature, but now that I live with a traumatic brain injury, it’ s been a little harder. I try at the end of each week, to be able to say that I made a difference in someone’s life. But I decided to raise the bar. I thought, who better than God to help me make a difference? So, I decided to post a scripture everyday on my Facebook status every morning. Something well thought out and planned with a direct purpose and meaning in mind to touch the hearts and minds of the reader. That’s the purpose of the Holy Scriptures, is it not? So it gives me purpose to post, and fulfills the challenge, for by the end of the year, we will have all read at least 365 more scriptures than had I not posted any at all. I think that’s a kindness God would approve of from a brain injury survivor and if nothing else, I have deepen my appreciation for the sacred writings and drawn closer to God. “Draw close to God and he will draw close to you.”- James 4:8

In 2010, I suffered a traumatic brain injury and other injuries when hit by an under insured driver. It changed my life. I now live with Dystonia, a rare and painful neurologal disorder that causes involuntary muscle spasms and abnormal posturing. There is no treatment or cure. The best one can do is treat the symptoms. You can learn more at DMRF.org.
