In front of Alan, a ten year old girl waited expectantly. Through Ruth, his interpreter, he learned the child could not read. Therefore, he placed his eye chart of symbols on the table. The child just stared at it and spoke to Ruth who explained that even the middle line was blurry.
Rarely do reading glasses help the children Alan sees on mission trips. Most need prescription lens or surgery. Therefore, his supply of glasses is geared to adults.
He looked into the bags of glasses hoping for a pair that might not be too big. What a surprise to find one small pair. He handed them to the little girl.
Carefully, she put them on and looked down at the chart. Her face crinkled into a wide grin. Because she could see, the pastor’s daughter could now learn to read.
Once again, God supplied the glasses for an unusual case. Out of over two hundred pair of glasses, one small pair waited on a special, little girl with a specific need.
Romans 11: 36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to Him be the glory forever. Amen
