This is one of the most inspiring stories I have read in a long time. I think the long and short of it is that your mind is the most powerful tool you have.
It isn't your legs, your hands, eyes or whatever, it is your mind. Once your mind can conceive and act on it, you would definitely achieve your set goal.When  it is backed up with 'stubborn faith', then you are simply unstoppable. I just have to share it with my Naijapals



Quote
When I was 8 years old, a Prophet came to my house and after prayers took a look at me and said I will never do well academically and when its time my parents should send me to learn trade. I wept that night because I knew the Vision I saw of myself. My sister Chinyere came to me and said Nna you can be whatever you want to be; I believed her. TODAY I am a graduate of Architecture with Masters and Doctorate(PhD) degree in the same field, which I graduated in both with First Class High Honours. Today am one of the youngest PhD holders in Architectural Construction Technology from Nigeria, maybe the youngest and the only one as I was told. Friends believe in yourself and know you can turn around any negative Prophesy over your life by keying into your Vision. I did it by God's Grace and I know you can.#MyBirthDayTestimony

Thats an indication that pastors can't prophesize their own future let alone the common man.

It is history repeating itself .   I hope this post is not going back to history to report the story of one of the greatest men in history who his mother took to the Oracle and the reported seeing him and Idiot and a neer do well in Life . 
It turned out however that not only did the gentleman excel in his vocation he was also very popular Philosopher and Spiritual icon.  Its a very  popular story only the name  skips my memory right now
