Who can understand what a blind man sees?
For he sees without seeing, yes very clearly.
You say he's blind, yet he sees your mind,
he knows more than you do about your kind.
His imagination knows no bound,
yours is limited by what you see around.
Since he can see none ill,
only through his ears can he swallow swill.
He knows no beauty that is skin deep,
for he sees with his soul as you do when asleep.
He appreciates the true essence of beauty
That lies beyond the flesh; embedded in personality.
He lusts not after flashy jewels and gems,
for he has narrowed the gates to his soul.
He thirsts not for inanimate wealth
his greatest value is his own health.
The one you see as seeing not,
sees much more than our sort
for he sees without seeing
not only seeing is believing
We have been blinded by our sight. We have been deceived into thinking that we are bodies that have souls and spirits, when in truth, I am a soul that lives in a body and I am immortal. This lie has shifted our focus to please the body above the soul. The things we claim to need, we can live without. Nobody knew he was poor until they told us what they defined riches to be. Until we saw spinners on car rims, we never needed them. Until we heard people boasting about the lifestyles of the rich and famous, life was simple and we were happy.
A happy family used to be the sign of wealth, productive land that could sustain your basic needs, a home. Now, its in having more cars than you need, being recognized by people you will never meet. Having more money than you can spend... Oh and it doesn't matter how this wealth is acquired, as long as you have it, you are a star, an Idol. Everybody wants to be you or be with you.
Your soul is not at peace and you think that acquiring more wealth is the solution, the answer is in acquiring the true wealth. Finding your true worth begins in the realization that you are a soul living in a body and you will continue to starve unless you feed your true self... The riches will never be enough, you will never be satisfied and your thirst will never be quenched.
Rev 3:17 - 19
"Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing'—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—
"I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.
"As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.
