God bless our veterans this Armistice Day weekend. I read a story of a
soldier who was severely injured in an explosion Iraq. His face was badly
disfigured, and he lost his eyesight as well as both hands. He was just a
new Christian, and one of his greatest disappointments was that he could no
longer read the Bible.
Then he heard about a lady in England who read Braille with her lips. Hoping
to do the same, he sent for some books of the Bible in Braille. Much to his
dismay, however, he discovered that the sensitive nerve endings in his lips
had been destroyed by the explosion.
One day, as he brought one of the Braille pages to his lips, his tongue
happened to touch a few of the raised characters and he could feel them.
Like a flash he thought, I can read the Bible using my tongue.
This man has now “read” through the entire Bible four times in the past four
years. More than I have.
