It is almost becoming a weekly ritual, early Saturday morning watching previously aired episodes of Extreme Home Makeovers.

This morning I watched the abbreviated story of Patrick Henry Hughes and his family who live in Louisville, Ky. Patrick was born with no eyes, and he cannot extend his limbs, making it impossible for him to walk. He is a multi-instrument musician, who with the help of his Dad marches in the University of Louisville Band.

By most counts, Patrick is disabled.

After watching this episode, I say he is enabled!

Throughout the entire episode, I was amazed at the interaction of the mother and father along with the two other brothers. The way they would take time to describe what they were seeing to include Patrick.

The University band was the recipient of a new field to practice marching on, that bears a sign saying "This field was inspired by Patrick Henry Hughes".

Of course if you have ever watched the show, you know they select a family who has experienced difficulties, sometimes monetary, sometimes health, broken homes, lost parents, there are all sorts of reasons. However, the results usually include the community coming together to rebuild or build a new home which meets the special needs of the selected family.

I watched as Patrick's family walked into their new home, it would have been easy for other family members to get too excited to tell Patrick what they were seeing. I watched as Patrick felt of the fireplace, the new furnishings, the counter tops, and even the railings around his accessible toilet in an apartment within the house designed specifically for Patrick.

To finish the segment, Patrick played the piano, singing Ronnie Dunn's "I Believe". Ronnie would have to be pleased.

In a moving statement, Patrick's Dad thanked the Extreme Makeover Crew for their gifts and that he and his family would continue to earn it every day, by continuing to give back to the community.

And for some reason, I feel like I have not lived up to my potential.

Forgive me FATHER, for not being all YOU intended for me to be. Help me to give YOU full control.
