I was getting ready for church last week when I
noticed how grey my hair had become. As I wondered how that could possibly have
happened without me noticing, I remembered something I was told almost thirty
years ago. Roy Corey, a member of the Truro Church, told me how he had
discovered his eyesight was directly connected to the amount of pigment in his
hair. When I questioned him more, he told me how he had noticed that when his
hair was dark he had no problem seeing, but as his hair became progressively
greyer his eyesight got progressively worse. Ergo, it was apparent that his
eyesight was directly connected to the amount of pigment in his hair.
When you think about that, it makes complete sense.
An obvious case of cause and effect. But I have discovered in life that just
because something makes sense doesn’t mean it’s true. Those in the world will
often ask you to embrace their culture and their values simply because they
make sense. Granted, sometimes they do make sense, but that doesn’t mean they are
true or right.
And just because you colour your hair doesn’t mean
you won’t need glasses. Have a great week and remember: To see what
is really possible, you will have to attempt the impossible.
