Nothing breaks my heart more than seeing children with severe problems. Just doesn't seem fair and we all know that life is not always fair. Today, we were eating lunch out after church and a couple came in with a little boy. The mother was leading him by the hand and it was easy to see the little guy was blind. She was telling him he was at a step and he needed to step up and then when they got to the table he was feeling for the chair. I overheard his mother telling a lady that he was 11 years old and blind from birth. It nearly brought tears to my eyes as I thought this little guy does'nt know what a human looks like, a tree, a dog, can't read a book, watch television, and a million other things we take for granted. I can't imagine what the parents can do to help this little guy enjoy life but I will definitely remember that entire family in my prayers.
you as I saw all the things he was missing. But what we missed was he had loving family helping him. The humanity of people is great. A couple weeks ago a 22 year old local man killed his 2 year old daughter by beating. The inhumanity of people can be great also.
