Let Your Soul Be Seen

I cannot see the essence of thee, Yet in thy deepest mystery lies reality. Not with my eyes but with my heart I see, Truth is inside of me. The chaos of this illusionary life is blinding, Yet still unwinding. Within my inner solitude, I could be finding, My authentic self is revealing, reminding. All peace is in wholeness and unity, Not in living as the illusionary me. I need to change what others see, Let my spirit truly be. A spiritual observer in a physical state, With unlimited powers to create. To reveal your true self is Truth’s mandate, Allowing harmony to escalate. Just telling others what they want to be told, It’s not your giving, they’re just being consoled. Speak the truth, speak up, be bold. Or the fate of our world will be darkness and cold.

"a spiritual observer in a physical state..." I like that. No, truth is not popular in Satan's world, but it must be proclaimed nonetheless by those willing, for the sake of the humble and honest hearted who may yet respond before it's too late

Amen, Tommy, He's not coming back until all have had an opportunity to know Him. Blessings, my friend. Bill
