When Dr. Moon, of Brighton, England, was suddenly struck with blindness, he said, “Lord, I accept this ‘talent’ of blindness from You. Help me to use it for Your glory so that when You return, You may receive it ‘back with interest’ [Matthew 25:27].” Then God enabled him to invent the Moon Alphabet for the blind, through which thousands of blind people were enabled to read the Word of God and thereby come to the glorious saving knowledge of Christ.
Oh, to see my “thorn in the flesh” in this way!
Lord, I accept this ‘talent’ of mental illness from You. Help me to use it for Your glory so that when You return, You may receive it ‘back with interest.’
