Why Does God Allow Disabilities

A question I often ask myself and don’t have an answer for myself is why does God allow disabilities to be in his people when he could heal them.  I’ve heard all the many theories on why God allows people to have disabilities when he could just heal them but I would like to hear your opinion – especially if you have a disability.  Why does God allow those with disabilities to not be healed when he could do so?

    In John chapter nine it says :’As Jesus was walking along, He saw a man who had been blind from birth. “Teacher,” his disciples asked him, “Why was this man born blind? Was it a result of his own sins or those of his parents?”

    “It was not because of his sins or his parent’s sins,” Jesus answered. “He was born blind so the power of God could be seen in him.’

    I think the answer is right there ’so the power of God can be seen in him.’ Then Jesus says “All of us must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent me.” I personally don’t find it to powerful of a witness when I see a person who was given many talents doing an assigned task. However, when I see someone carrying out an assigned task, despite their daily struggles. Now that is witnessing the power of God. Anybody can work through a person who has been given many gifts, but God can also work through disabled people. Now that is power. If I was cured and then did my assigned task, that wouldn’t be too impressive. When I do it despite my autism, thats the power of God.
