Why Can’t I See God’s Goodness?

Am I the only one who’s blind?

That doesn’t seem fair.

What am I doing wrong?

What’s my problem?

What do I have to change?

That’s so sad,

Beauty stands before me

And I don’t even see it. 

I must lack Spiritual Vision,

God’s vision.

All the beauty of the world welcomes me,

And I don’t notice it.

What a shame!

It’s everywhere; but for me, it’s nowhere.

Maybe I need to ask for that vision.

“Ask and you will receive.”

It’s a gift,

Given by the giver of all gifts,

Of all goodness.

Gifts sometimes need to be requested.

I have to ask for the gift,

And I have to deserve it.

Maybe I have to do both.

What do I need to do to deserve it?

We’ll find that out.
