My Eyes Do Not See

That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.  For when I am weak, then I am strong.

                                                                                                II Corinthians 12:10

My eyes do not see,

but I have eyes

with which to see,

my ears do not hear,

but I have ears

with which to hear,

my mind does not understand,

but I have a mind

with which to understand;

I have You

and that is all I need.

This fleshly body

slowly crumbles into the dust,

yet I continue to rise,

man-made ideas and thoughts

come and go,

but in the end

they mean nothing at all;

I have You

and that is all I need.

Through weakness

Your strength is made perfect,

therefore I shall glory

in all my weakness,

for when I am weak

I am made strong

by Your grace alone;

I have You

and that is all I need.
