As the song says "You don't always get what you want, but you get what you need," Mary.
Thanks for sharing that..
A mother of a woman I've come to know who works down the hill from us at our local Walmart went blind in one eye. She went to every specialist she could find, and they all told her the same thing: that there was nothing that could be done to restore her sight in that eye.. no surgery would work. One morning, she was praying to have her sight restored and she felt the presence of the Lord. That day, her eyesight came back in that eye.
The next appointment she had with the eye Doctor, she read the eyechart with her "good" eye covered, reading with the eye that had gone blind. The Doctor had no explanation for the recovery of her sight in that eye.
Last year, when my group did our Anniversary concert, my friend brought her Mother with her to hear us. It was a very special night for them, and for me and the Messengers, who had heard the story.
The only explanation I can give is: "In the darkness, give me the eyes of faith."
