God Says:
"Have Faith!"
Scientific Man Stresses:
"Indulge Doubt!"
God Says:
"Walk Not Be Sight!"
"You'd Better Recognize!"
Worldly-wise Man Boldly, Insultingly, Shouts!
Almighty God Made Man!
Finite Man Makes I-Seeing Gods!
God Says:
"Follow Me!"
Evolutionary Man Says:
"I Can't - Won't - Follow What My Eyes Can't See!"
God Says:
"Faith Is The Substance Of Things Hoped For
The Evidence Of Things Not Seen!"
Faithless Man Says:
"Show Me ...
The Money
The Man
The Method
The Manner
The Means
The Modes
The Might
The Mold
The Majesty
The Ministry
The Misery
The Picked Cherry
The Soul's Sole
AND THEN
Just Maybe
I Will Be On "It!" Sold!
God Says:
"Come!"
Self-Made Man Says:
Sure ... After I See You
Feel You
Taste You
Touch You
AND
Hear You
In Full Cinematic Mode!
Unless There Is A Full Hollywood-Sanctioned Presentation
A Blockbuster Blow-Out
I Proffer
You Are Neither Worthy
Nor Worthwhile!
You're Wanting!
Wishful Thinking!
I Shall You Pass By!
Bye! Bye!
I'm Out!
Alas! Alas ...
The Day Is Coming
AND
It's Already Here
When Men
Through Their Over-Wrought Eyes
Shall Be Led
By The Damned Devil
To The Unbelievers' Despair
When Those Who Saw
With The Blind Eyes Of Faith
Shall Hear
See
AND
Rise Up
To Meet Their Longed-For Lord
AND
God
In The Open Atmosphere!
The Wilfully Sighted
Shall Be Blinded By Glorious Light!
The Blind-Faith Faithful
Shall See Their Hope Realized
AND
In Joyous Celebration Cheer
AND
In That Moment
The Cry Of Despairing Hearts Shall Go Up:
Deceived! Deceived!
Rocks! Mountains!
Fall On Us!
Hide Us
For
The Wrath Of The Lamb Is Come
And
Our Doubt Has Cost Us
The Glorious Lot!
Deceived! Deceived By Satan's Own Hand
We Seeing, Saw Not
And
For This
We Shall Never Enter
Faith's Promised Land!
BUT
He Asks Us To See Him
Through The Believer's Love In Our Hearts
BY
Trusting His Word
AND
Not Worrying About
What He Has Not To Us Disclosed!
Faith Walks And Works!
Doubt Drags
Deceives
AND
Delivers Disaster!
Just "Ask" A Moses Hebrew
To Tell You Of
Their Desert
AND
Promised Land
Odyssey Of Disaster!
Faith Earns!
Doubt Doesn't Discern!
*********
Doubt Is What
Faith Is Not!
Doubt Is
A Whole Lotta Talk
Which
At The Thought Of Walking
Balks!
*********
Trust God!
He Will Deliver You
AND
For You!
