At Your Fingertips

Fingertips open the door to sight in a world of darkness. The blind are on high alert to their surroundings. They receive pertinent information through sited touch. Finger painting is not merely preschool introduction to art; after touching, the blind receive mind paintings of people, places and things.

Tracing faces and objects; they quickly determine size, shape and texture. Those with clarity of vision pour hot beverages with little thought. The blind rely on tips of their fingers placed within the rim of glasses and cups. It's time to stop pouring when the liquid touches skin.

They need no birth certificate to determine a person's age. Touch seldom misleads; they can calculate years on weathered faces by fingering crow’s feet and wrinkles. The touch of brittle hair often means gray has replaced richer tones.

Braille would be impossible without the ability to touch each raised letter or number. Braille allows them to read personal letters; legal documents and books. Many of the blind depend on Braille keyboards, restroom signs, restaurant menus and more. They easily attain volumes of information through the written word of Braille.

The sense of touch is a truly remarkable gift. Reach out and touch…

“For she said, ‘If I touch even his garments, I will be made well.’ And immediately the flow of blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, immediately turned about in the crowd and said, ‘Who touched my garments (Mark 5:28-30 ESV)?”
