The Bible say God's presence is always near the person of the Holy Spirit, but what about the person that have problem like can't hear, see, or maybe 25 or older with the mind of a two year old person? How can they live a life for Christ? How will the make it Heavens? When they are so messed-up.

Not hearing or seeing is no problem at all in living for Christ. It comes from the heart, not from the sight or the sound. And if a person's mind hasn't developed, that's not a problem, either. It's in the way a person acts toward others and how they live their lives that is being the example of Christ.
Some of us with all our facilities find it harder to be a good example than those who are challenged physically or mentally. It's what a person is deep inside that makes the difference, not what a person pretends to be on the outside.

I am a blind man and can see more than a lot of people. Even though I walk in darkness every day I was always taught never to hide the light of God inside of me. I've been blind all of my life so I don't know what it is to see but when one sense is taken from you the others are strengthened such as my ability to hear and one should always be quick to listen to what people say.

You are so blessed, child of God!!!!
Even though you don't see the Chaotic world. Not seeing God's creation but your faith in him grows deeper and let God lighten you. Than those people who were not blind allowing themselves to be blinded by the fact of, ignoring,wasting,destroying God made.You are one of the few people who expressed gratitude towards God.Keep believing,I know one day God knows everything we do.We are all going to face our almighty and its consequences.

I try very hard to live for Christ. I help when people are in need no matter how many times they have hurt me, I feed the hungry, and I try to forgive over and over again like Jesus says to.
As for the people that have a disability I know God is with them and I know He understands they have no way to do things for others. But I do think they have humble hearts and the faith of a child like God tells us to have. =)

I believe I am. I have been on a difficult road, but somehow i am still trying my best to be the best i could, especially keeping people from being hurt by my doing. I think most people would not even notice that i have been going through some things because i always try to pray before i react especially if i know i would be the concern.

Hi there.
In living everyday for Christ is a challenge; it is because of His Grace that I can be a light to others.
People who can't hear and see have their own ways of communication, we can still share the gospel to them. Sometimes they are the ones used by God for us to see how He works in people with defects. When We think it is impossible, it is always possible with God. About the 25 or older with a mind of a 2 year old, there is what we call child evangelism. They are also taught about the Gospel and how to be a living example in their own little ways.
