Has He been with
so long, and still
He is not seen?
What about light,
from the beginning,
to see anything at all?
What about the word,
what was said from the start,
Who continues to speak even today?
And what about love,
sent into the world that
we might love and be loved?
Do we not see much
and yet believe in the
effects of their presence:
wind, gravity and magnetism,
thoughts, feelings and smell,
electricity, internet and energy,
Why then exclude only God?
Imagine the danger
of choosing to not believe,
to ignore the reality of gravity?
Seeing is not
the only path
to believing.
Many saw plenty
and still chose to
not do so.
Is it more truth
that not believing
is not wanting to?
It is easier
for some to
buck the Creator
and make themselves
god.
Jesus was here,
is it so hard to
deny what He
had to say?
Blessed are those
who believe who have
not seen, and now know
the kingdom is not just near?
It's here.
Those who see no soul
in the world on whole,
ignore what's inside,
the very breath of God.
Jesus said, hearing
is the highway to faith,
God still speaks, has lots
to say, if only we'll listen.
A man who stands
in a lighted room, can
still claim it is so dark.
Consider the magnificence
of what we can see and believe,
behold seas, mountains, and skies,
the universe even, tells no lies.
The key to the door
of belief is faith, not sight.
He who clings only
to what his eyes betray
depends alone on his might.
If Jesus sang
this world's song,
throngs would rush
to sing along.
But since He sings
a tune the world hates,
because His light shines
on its sin hiding in the dark,
It hates Him.
