Joel Smallbone of for KING & COUNTRY got the gift of a colorful world this Christmas when his wife Moriah Peters gave him special lenses to correct his color blindness.
Although Joel's color blindness is not severe, he is unable to distinguish some colors from each other. To give him the chance to see the world in full color, Moriah has the lenses of his sunglasses replaced with glass recently developed by
EnChroma. As a result, Joel got to see the full spectrum of colors for the first time. The couple
shared a video of the moment, which you can watch below.
Joel also posted some reflections on the experience to the for KING & COUNTRY facebook, sharing "It truly was an 'eye-opening' moment for me, if you will. Somehow I find there to be a correlation between this moment and how I often live life... In minutes and seconds, in days and hours, in going through motions. But I do believe, like in this moment if we were to put on spiritual glasses, where we see things as God does, we would see people, circumstances, and life from heavens POV.. With all the colors and vibrance and drama and hope, as it was intended."
