YESTERDAY'S (1982) POEM - "STILL" - IS JUST AS TRUE TODAY

So many times, I read a poem Father gave me, and I don't really understand the total meaning there. And then, later on in life, it becomes even more real to me than ever before. Sounds a little crazy, I know, but then when you understand that Father knows what some of our futures hold, forordained from old, even though the poems was wrote for someone else, long ago, how wonderful that it can still hold true today.

My heart cries out for those who refuse to see, because they are so caught up in life, they do not realize they are traveling the path to deception and death. And then, there are those who physically can not see, but Father has given them a perception to discern and actually "see" more than those who do have good eyes.
*
Some are spiritually blind and some are physically blind, but Father can heal all types of blindness, in His own way and time.
*
So many of us have members in our own families who are so caught up and  involved in the ways of the world, that they simply refuse to turn to the Father, even when faced with sickness or death. I sometimes wonder why Father chose to put us in this families, but then some of the reasons I can easily see.
*
Let's play a game called, "IF?"
*
"If" we were born in a family who all had eyes to see and ears to hear, would we be so open to search for the Lord's will in our own lives and then share with others, or would we just be content to let life go on, and not put out that extra effort that is necessary, to discover and follow the path set before us?
*
"If" we were not born in this family, would we still have the ability to reach out to them and help them in the millennium, if we are unable to reach them in this age in the normal way?
*
"If" the Lord has put them in a spirit of "slumber," for their own protection, (which is why they cannot be reached at this time,) does that not give us even more love and compassion to reach out to others, resting in our faith in our Father, and knowing that it is all in His plan?

           STILL
If my mouth could not speak,
Still, He is the Living Word.
If my ears could not hear,
Still, my prayers would all be heard.
*
If my eyes should lose their sight,
Still, my heart would let me see.
If my body lost it's motion,
Still, my soul would set me free.
*
If my memory should leave me,
With my Savior, I will be;
For He's always there to guide me,
Since He gave His Life for me.
*
If my life be taken from me,
Still, I'll live eternally.
Turn your life over to Jesus,
And His Love will set you free.
