Introduction

Hello and welcome to my first Christian devotional. This book draws on material from two of my previous books, Life Without Limits and Unstoppable. It is intended to provide you with a series of quick inspirational and faith-building stories to be read daily or whenever you feel you need them. There are no rules other than God’s.

I do want to comment on the title, Limitless, which refers not to my abilities or your abilities but to God’s limitless love
and power. As you may already know from my speeches, books, and videos—or you may suspect from photographs—
I am technically more limited physically than most people.

I was born without arms or legs. Though I lacked limbs, I was blessed with a loving and supportive family that includes
not just my parents and my brother and sister (both of whom came fully equipped) but also many cousins, aunts, and uncles. Even better, I was given the gift of Christian faith.

That’s not to say I did not struggle with my faith, especially when I reached those difficult adolescent years when we
all try to figure out our place in the world—where we fit in and what we have to contribute. I prayed to God that I would
wake up with arms and legs. Those prayers were not answered. I grew angry and then depressed. Thoughts of suicide drove me to make an attempt on my own life, but I stopped short when I realized my death would burden my loved ones with guilt and grief.

Over time, I came to understand that God had not brought me into the world without limbs to punish me. Instead, He had a plan for me, an incredible plan to serve Him by inspiring and leading others to lives of Christian faith.

If God can take someone like me, someone without arms and legs, and use me as His hands and feet, He can use anybody. It’s not about ability. The only thing God needs from you is a willing heart.

What do you need to live in faith on this earth and then to be blessed with eternal life in the kingdom of heaven? You
need a relationship with Jesus Christ as your personal savior. Where you are weak, God is strong. When you walk in faith each and every day, your life has no limits.

You can take that on faith, which I highly recommend, or you can take it from the pages that follow, which offer my life
as testimony to the incredible power of the Lord our God. I am a man who is not disabled but enabled. I travel the world on God’s business, reaching out to believers and sinners, rich and poor. I’m allowed to deliver my messages of faith, hope, and love in nations where many Christians fear to tread.

I have a ridiculously good life, and now since my marriage in 2012, I have the honor and the joy of sharing it with
a strong Christian wife who is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. In my days of despair, one of my most depressing thoughts was that no woman could ever love a man without arms or legs. I was so, so wrong. My vision was limited. I forgot that ours is a loving God, wise in ways that we cannot comprehend.

Like me, you may not be able to see or even imagine what He has in store for you. My goal with this devotional is to help you expand your vision and build your faith by sharing what God has done for me and for the special men, women, and children I’ve met in my travels around the world.

I hope you enjoy the devotions and you benefit from them. But more important, I hope they help you get on the right
track with God so that you are transformed with Him and come to trust that, through Him, all things are possible.
