DAILY MANNA FOR TODAY
Helen Adams Keller (June 27, 1880 – June 1, 1968) was an American author, disability rights advocate, political activist, and lecturer. Born in West Tuscumbia, Alabama, she lost both her sight and hearing at the age of nineteen months after a severe illness.
Until she was seven, she communicated mainly through home signs, before meeting Anne Sullivan—her first teacher and lifelong companion—who taught her language, including reading and writing. Keller later attended Radcliffe College of Harvard University and became the first blind person in the United States to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree.
When asked what could be worse than being born blind, she famously replied, “The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.”
In today’s passage, Apostle Paul speaks of the blindness of the Jewish religious leaders. Though custodians of the Old Testament Law, they remained spiritually blind, refusing to accept the revelation of Christ, in whom the Law found its fulfilment.
The veil of the old religious order still covered their hearts, preventing them from seeing the righteousness of God revealed through faith in Christ. Many of these teachers were influential figures in the cities where Paul preached, zealously defending traditions that could not save. For such hardened hearts, the only recourse was earnest intercession for divine illumination and salvation.
Blindness of the mind is not limited to physical or cognitive conditions. In a broader sense, it describes a state in which a person becomes so overwhelmed or fixated on certain beliefs, ideologies, or traditions that the mind is closed to truth, no matter how clearly it is presented. When this happens spiritually, the heart becomes resistant to God’s revelation.
A spiritually blind person struggles to accept God’s claims, not because the truth is unclear, but because the heart is unwilling to see. This becomes a major obstacle to the work of the Holy Spirit. This does not imply any weakness in God or the gospel.
Rather, it reflects God’s respect for human free will. He does not coerce belief but invites all to respond willingly. Each individual must therefore choose whether to accept or reject God’s gracious call.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Visionlessness is the worst form of blindness.
