 Question:

Lord, it

would be better to be born without an

arm than to go through life with no

guts.” What do you think this means?

Why?

I think it means it would be better to have no arm but have the guts to do things, so you can make  a difference to the world. It is better than being able to have an arm but, have no guts to do things. It is better because, you can be heard. Follow your instincts.
