Blindness that so easily besets ...
Hebrews 13:5 New King James Version (NKJV)
5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Blindness that so easily besets …
I did not see you yesterday while You were in my presence
You walk with me all the time as I am traveling in circles
It seems so strange to understand that my selfishness in essence
Is like a nursery rhyme with every word and thought a hurdle
You walked hand in hand with me and I had no awareness
Sunken deep in thought with self of what to do with the time allotted
How can I ever in “future” be and be more formed in Your Likeness?
If I get lost in self so easily in forms of service so ill-begotten
Where to go from here my friend as the ‘Narrow Path” seems to widen?
Intersecting with the highway that seems to be traveled by so many
Just around the approaching bend another choice that frightens
As for my guilt drives me to pay, “for what is free”, with a useless penny
