TRAGEDY INTO TRIUMPH | When God Says No - Inky Johnson Inspirational & Motivational Video

What would you do if everything you worked for your whole life was wiped away in one moment? Inky Johnson, who played safety at Tennessee, was projected to be a first-round NFL draft pick. But that dream evaporated when Johnson suffered a life-changing injury that left his right arm paralyzed. Since then, Johnson has turned his story into one of triumph to encourage and uplift those around him. His testimony shows us that the things that happen in life are not designed to stop us but to reposition us so we can come in contact for what God really has for us.

[@russdunnett5997]

@jarred marques Everyone has a purpose in life, God has put us all in this world for a reason, even if you feel that you are lost and think that God is not listening too you He is, He always is listening, to every prayer, to every thought, He has put us on a path to serve and love Him, He put us on Earth to be His children, God loves everyone even if we dont think He does. Yes life may be hard at times, but just know that God is always listening to us, even if you think He never answers us, He is waiting for the right moment, and that moment will come, it might not be tomorrow or in a month but it will come. God loves you @jarred marques

Watching this 4 years later and i was tearing up pretty badly. My situation wasn't quite to this severity but I was going into sophomore year highschool and wrestling was my thing. Wrestled for 13 years been alive 16. I was one match away from placing in state in 9th grade and tenth grade year was my year to place, coach expected me top 5 in state. Little did I realize my season would be stripped away in practice when I tore my acl in half. I laid there and cried for 10 minutes and then prayed. My entire recovery process I prayed. I had surgery less than a month later and now 6 months later I'm cleared. This was the best worst experience of my life(so far) because it stripped my ego off of me and drove me to christ. I'm now healthy and ready for sophomore season and I'm dedicated to treating every match as it's my last. If you stuck around and read this I greatly appreciate you, praise the lord!

I have a twin brother and we were devastated to see her like that plus she had always been super strong so to see our rock crumble in front of us took us on a deep spiral. But we picked ourselves back up she is better now. She is not 100 but she is back up to her old cheerful self. But when that happened all I had was God. I was in a real bad place. Our future was grim. But God guided our family thru it

I have this experience recently. I had always been praying to God for more than a year to help me admitted into a good business school. I always prayed prayed and prayed intensively. I did fasting also. I studied so much and did the admission tests, but i failed for a couple times repeatedly. I wanted to give up and claimed that i am a failure. But God's words saved me. So I tried even though i thought that it would be harder than i thought before. I applied for 2 different univs, one MBA and one MA in economics as a safety choice . So i did the entrance tests and i thought that well maybe my chance is a lil bit bigger than i thought. I actually admitted to my safety university. But the announcement day came and i haven't received my letter. The school only sends letter for the successful applicants. I asked one alumni she said that she received her mail at the same date as the announcement date. So i was really disappointed because i've been working so hard and praying also. My parents also prayed for my dream. I was so sad and cried for hours. I knew that i have to be grateful because at least i still have my safety choice. But i thought that i've been praying for MBA not MA, and it just didn't feel right at that time. After crying, i prayed. I prayed and suddenly i remembered for all of the prayers that i always said. The prayers always closed with "I put everything into YOUR holly hands God, let YOU be the one who take control". I cried and feeling really sorry for couldn't accept the truth. I was really sorry because no matter what, i should always be grateful and accept every answers God's gave and also keep doing my best. Even though i was really sad, I have to keep my promise to God. I even thought that well maybe i'm not meant to study in business school. Couple of days later I passed my mail box and saw a white envelope. I was shaking at that moment and really couldn't believe what i saw. I took the envelope with a shaking hands and opened it. The first word i read was "congratulations" and i cried. I fell to my knees and prayed to God. Be thankful for the results but mostly because He never let me down, be thankful that God helped me accepting the "no", and not doubting Him. I was really amazed by what God did to me, the time i was sure that I didn't get what i always pray and work for, made me accepted for every decisions HE made, and actually replied my prayer as a "yes". Moreover, i got scholarship from that business school. Not only answered my prayer but He also gave me more than what i thought. I am really thankful not only because i got what i always prayed and worked for but to always keep my faith on God. I know that you who reading this is on the hard time. I pray for you, I pray God give you all the strength to bear everything that happened into your life, for every "no" in your life. I pray that you will remain faithful on God's words even it's painful. Because God's plan and timing is always perfect.

[@beverlywhitlock5878]

Amen, I'm facing a similar situation! I've been praying and waiting for over four years for this specific career (job). To, add I've had numerous interviews that all ended with no; we've decided to go with another applicant. Over these four years I had a time accepted the fact that may be it's not for me, but for some reason. Something keeps pulling on my heart to keep applying. Reading your comment made me realize maybe God is going to do it but he's doing it his way! God's promises for us bigger than we can imagine! We think, well Lord I want this so bad I just take whatever you give me, but he sometimes thinks I don't want you rent this I want you too own it. Basically, I'm just saying when God gives it to you, it's way beyond what we could've dreamed. I'm so thank to know my father (God) sees and know what's best for me even when I don't! Thanks for sharing it really blessed my soul. God bless you

[@IzSumTingWong]

nad sim What I say to you is true. Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Messiah the old testament prophets prophesied his coming(Jeremiah 23:5, Ezekial 34:23, Isaiah 53:5.) "For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." 2 Corinthians 5:21. It is only through Christ crucified that we recieve forgiveness of sins. Jesus Christ has died and rose again. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:15-16. Want to know the truth for yourself? Ask the Lord Jesus Christ. "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain. The choice I leave up to you my friend.

[@jiren676]

@@nadsim154 *1.Jesus forgave sins* (Only God can forgive sins) Mark 2:10 But I want you to know that the *Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins."* So he said to the man, Matthew 9:1-8 Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town. 2 Some men brought to him a paralyzed man, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, *“Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.”* *2.Jesus was worshipped.* Matthew 2:11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and *they bowed down and worshiped him.* John 12:13 They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, “Hosanna![a]” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the king of Israel!” (The word hosanna is a plea for salvation and an expression of adoration. This word used by the crowd is definitely a form of worship) Matthew 14:33 Then those who were in the boat *worshiped him,saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”* Matthew 28:9 Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. *They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.* John 20:28 Thomas said to him, *“My Lord and my God!”* In none of these instances do we see Jesus telling those worshiping Him to stop, as did mere men and even angels who were being worshiped wrongly by others (Acts 10:25-26; Revelation 19:9-10). *3.God Himself says Jesus is His Son.* Matthew 3:17 and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, *"This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased* Matthew 17:5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud said, *"This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!"* *4.Jesus claimed to be God/Equal with God.* Matthew 16:14-18 But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, *“You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”* Jesus replied, *“Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.* John 5:18 For this reason they tried all the more to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, *but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.* John 5:58 “Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, *“before Abraham was born, I AM!”* John 10:30-33 *I and the Father are one.”* Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him, 32 but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?” *“We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”* Mark 14:61-62 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, *Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?* *And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.* *5.Jesus had attributes of God.* Jesus claimed omniscience by predicting Peter would denie Him and by predicting His own death and resurrection. Matthew 26:34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. Luke 18:31-33 Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled. 32 He will be delivered over to the Gentiles. *They will mock him, insult him and spit on him; 33 they will flog him and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”* Jesus declared omnipotence by raising Lazarus from the dead. John 11:43-45 When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus professed omnipresence by promising to His disciples He would be with them till the end of the age. Matthew 28:20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely *I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”* I think it's pretty clear now that Jesus is God.

I talked to God and yelled at him on why did this happen to me. I was at my Mom's house healing up and she heard me, she said to me "Stop! You think you have all the answers about how your life is suppose to be. You mapped it out, but it's not what God has in store for you". I changed my life completely! #wakeupcall God is 1st, husband is 2nd, children 3rd, and everything else falls behind. I wouldn't change what I have for the world right now! I was selfish and pig headed, 8yrs ago I got a true wake up call.
