One of our staff members was visiting one of the radio stations we work with. He approached the studio and was a bit taken back when the gentleman who was running the equipment turned to greet him. This man had obviously been in an accident and appeared to have been burned from head to foot. Disabilities obvious to many of us did not hinder this man from doing his job and running a radio station well. An amazing disabled American of the last century was Helen Keller. Although her parents never saw much hope for her, Anne Sullivan had a vision for Helen’s life; a vision that she could become a productive woman in society. The accomplished and nationally known speaker was asked once, "is there anything possibly worse than being blind?" Miss Keller responded, "Oh yes! It would be much worse to have your sight, but to not have vision." You know, we live in an age where there’s more to look at, view, and be entertained by than at any other time in history. But do we have a vision for character and quality of relationships in our families? And are the things that we’re doing and seeing distracting us from having a meaningful vision for our lives, for our families, and for how we can love others? |
