In my senior year of high school, my plan for the future was to be a chicken farmer in Arizona. Little did I know that God had a very different plan for my life. Over time, I have come to believe that God orders our steps, through tragedy and triumph, to serve Him as he sees fit." Life can throw many unexpected curve balls our way which affect our outlook on our ability to serve God. God doesn't want us to just survive our personal tragedies, He wants us to thrive under His personal care and direction. Ron Lester had the odds stacked against him. From a very young age he found himself working to help his family survive some very lean times. Because of dyslexia, he had a difficult time learning in school. Later, he found out the reason some things were so difficult for him was that he was gradually going blind. Despite all the obstacles in the way, Ron was able to surrender to God's plans for his life. He went from a farm boy who could barely read to a full-time pastor, eventually earning his doctorate. This is the story of how God directed Ron's steps through many difficult circumstances, showing that the impossible is possible with God's provision and power in our lives. Dr. Lester is a true inspiration to anyone that feel they cannot do what God has called them to do just because they have some kind of disability. God will make a way, as long as they are willing. Dr. Lester is an Associate Pastor in Tucson, AZ. He and his wife, Betty, have 2 boys and 8 grandchildren. Dr. Ron Lester has worn many hats throughout his lifetime as a minister and educator in Oklahoma, California, Arizona, and outside the United States. His life story is a labor of love by which he hopes to encourage readers to fulfill their purposes, no matter the obstacles they face.
