Where- what-why ...


2 Corinthians 4:16 

Seeing the Invisible

16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing,

yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

Where were you yesterday when I called this morning?

Where were you hiding when my body was asleep?

Where do you go when the physical is no hindrance?

Where do you hide in me ... in what I think is deep?

 

What do you learn when you are out of your own presence?

What do you accept when you are not all there?

What do you rely on when not in your sub-conscience?

What do you seem to forget when in your self-made sphere?

 

Why are you afraid when totally uncertain?

Why do you imagine when searching for an escape?

Why do you always grasp when your hands are full?

Why can’t you see that lust in thought is mental rape?
