A pauper once asked a blind man what he wanted most and he answered, "I want to be poor. What do you want most?" The pauper replied, "I want to see." Which of the two came closest to the Kingdom? If the blind man could see, would he be as happy as the pauper who lost his eyes? Who hears better, the deaf or the lonely? What makes the wicked sinner a better man than the bitter saint? Can you walk with the righteous if you are on the wrong path? Are the days ahead more like what what we leave behind or what is at this moment?
A woman sat beside a well waiting for a drink while another milked her cow and filled her cup. Who made the right choice? Two farmers sowed seed but only one harvested. Who lived the better life? A dollar falls at your feet. Should you take it? Is it better to build sand castles or fortresses? Can you see if you don't know what you are trying to find?
If the pull of the Spirit tugs at your heart, would you know it? If lion lies down with the lamb, who would you lie beside? Is grace the end of the matter for you or would you wait for something more?
"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
