Walk With a Purpose

My Spiritual walk and my physical walk have been a journey. Learning to walk again is not just for me, but it is also for other stroke survivors. The more steps (15,000,000 steps) I take, the closer I get to Jesus so I can be a blessing to other people.

Another Milestone

Yesterday, I reached another milestone. I have now taken over 15,000,000 steps, which is 5,700 miles. It was 5 years ago when I lived in a wheelchair and I couldn’t walk. I prayed to God without ceasing for almost 90 days to empower me to take just one step. All I wanted in life at that time was to take just one step. God is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all we can ask or think according to the power that works in us. Ephesians 3:20. Whatever you are going through in life, just remember God is able. He might not come when you want Him, but He is always right on time. Persevere! Don’t quit! God is faithful.

5 Years Ago

5 years ago from today I had an AVM stroke. I was in Neuro ICU for 21 days fighting for my life. Despite not being back 100%, I have come along way. In fact, in many ways, I am now a better man. My life has been transformed and I praise God for my new normal. I have accomplished more for the Kingdom of God in the last 5 years than I did during my first 61 years of life on earth. Since this is the case, what have I done lately? I am glad you asked.
First of all, I was in rehab for 2 years, 1 month 18 days, 5 days a week and 5 hours each day. Despite having multiple impairments, my inability to walk was just one of them. I learned how to walk again after 3 months and it was the biggest challenge I have ever faced. Today I have taken more than 14, 500,000 steps. I have written 2 books, Life Is Good Post Stroke I Am Now Better Not Bitter which is published and 10,000,000 Steps Closer To Jesus, not published yet. In 2023, I became a member at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas. I am an active member. I am on the Prayer ministry and the Comfort and Care ministry team. I have spoken with or shared my testimony to over 2,000 people and 500 stroke survivors. I take 10,000 steps each day. I learned how to drive again after 3 years. I Co-founded A King’s Heart Foundation with my son. Through this foundation, I have raised money for every step I take to help other stroke survivors learn how to walk again. I have been on T. V. 3 different times sharing my story as I give God the glory. Currently, a Documentary is being produced to encourage millions of people that is going through adversity. Just remember in God’s hands, adversity or trials can become tools He uses to shape us, mold us or form us into the people He created us to be. In closing, my brothers and sisters, I want you to know what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel.
Phil 1:12

Walking in the Heat

Today, my day was interrupted with driving my wife around town to run errands. In fact she has not driven in 2 years . Post stroke I went 3 years without driving. Since I am now driving again, I do all the driving. I enjoy chauffeuring Yvette around town and I always manage to get my 10,000 steps no matter where we go.

Support

One lesson I learned as I recovered from my stroke was to lean on my support. The road to recovery is not a solo journey. Your family, friends, therapists and church is my support system. Asking for help is a sign of strength, it is not a sign of weakness.

Walking Upstairs Consistency 2

To recover from your stroke, you must be consistent in your practice. Whatever you are trying to improve, you must do it again and again and again. For example, I could not walk up stairs without using the handrails because of my balance. One day I went up stairs successfully. I kept doing this. In fact, I started going up the stairs every day. I added 1 trip upstairs everyday. After 1 week, I was walking upstairs 6 times a day everyday. Every morning for 6 months, I walked upstairs without using the handrails 6 times a day. 30 days x 6 = 180 times per month for 6 months =1080 times upstairs. Consistency!
Now with concentration, I can walk up stairs without using the handrails. This did not happen by accident. As you see, this was strategically planned and carried out with consistency. See video.

Consistency

As human beings, we want results immediately. As a stroke survivor, I would like to share a SECRET with you. It is CONSISTENCY. I had over 20 impairments after my stroke. The most noticeable one was I couldn’t walk, therefore I focused on learning to walk again. When I finally took my first few steps, it was on. I knew my temporary setback would be a major comeback. Whatever I did that day when I first walked, I did it again. I did it again. I did it again and again the same day. I did it again until I got bored doing it again. Then I increased it by 25%. I did it again and again and again and again the same day. I made a game out of this and I learned a lot about myself. I never thought about quitting because I was too busy playing this game. This game has gotten pretty big now. I am on TV all the time now because I take over 10,000 steps every day. Whatever you can do, do it consistently, at least daily. After awhile double up. Be consistent!
