When You Cannot See Him

Seeing is Believing, or is it -- Not in matters of Faith, I submit When you cannot see Him, but still believe Perfect Faith you will achieve Sages say He is everywhere, and in your heart If so, to depict Him is just false Art To see Him, Moses the Prophet his life would give The Lord said: "No man may see My Face and live." * (*Exodus 33:20) June 23, 2020 "Let the Pens Flow -- Rhyme Poetry Contest" "Faith in God" Sponsor: Jenish Somadas
