Alms! Alms for the blind! The missionary looked in the direction of the loud voice and saw an elderly, sightless man dressed in ragged, dusty clothes being led by a little boy who seemed to be about eight years old. The little boy flashed shiny white teeth at the missionary and held up a small tin cup.
The missionary knew the little guy must be tired after a long day of taking care of his elderly, blind relative. However, he seemed to be happy and grinned infectiously as the missionary dropped some coins into his cup. He then led the blind beggar over to others in the parking lot.
The child mentioned in our Scriptures is John the Baptist who led many people from the darkness of sin through a baptism of repentance. He would prepare the way for Jesus who would provide the tender mercy of God bringing salvation to many.
Lord, help me to show others the true meaning of the Christ child who was born so many years ago.
