Blind Faith

Habakkuk 2:1-4

I will stand upon my watch set in a tower,
Watching for Him to come with His power;
Waiting to hear His answer in the wind,
In a response for when I am disciplined;
God says to write the vision make it plain,
That it's available for everyone to obtain;
For the vision is yet of an event to occur,
With the truth coming out from the speaker;
Though it may linger do not worry and wait,
The time is sure to come and not hesitate;
The soul shall be uplifted but not upright,
Nevertheless living by faith without sight.
For this faith is blind and you can not see,
Through the eyes but your mind to decree;
A faith to paint a picture of how you think,
As a communication with the Lord to link;
While He is speaking your mind envisions,
Focusing on the future under His provisions;
A blind faith in God as built on your trust,
Giving visions of the future that are just.
