ONCE UPON A TIME, in Ireland there lived a little girl whose name was Amy Carmichael. She was desperate for blue eyes, because she did not like her plain brown ones.
So one night before Amy went to bed, she prayed that God would change her plain brown eyes into beautiful blue ones like the sea. When she awoke the next morning, she peered into a mirror expecting to find her eyes to be blue like the sea. However, when she looked in the mirror the same, plain brown eyes stared back at her.
God had a special purpose for not giving Amy blue eyes that day. Even though Amy did not know why God had given her brown eyes; someday she would understand that she needed to have plain brown eyes to be able to serve the Lord in India as a missionary.
