‘BLESSED ARE THEY WHO HAVE NOT SEEN AND YET HAVE BELIEVED.”

Child of Mine, I Love thee, listen now to Me,

And make answer truly while I question thee.

For I see that shadows do thy soul oppress,

And thy faith so weakens, that I cannot bless.

Thou hast craved My power and presence in thy soul.

Wilt thou yield thee truly unto My control?

Wilt thou let Me ever with thee have My way.

Yield thyself in all things simply to obey?

Though My presence oft times seem to be withdrawn,

Of Mine inward workings not a trace be shown,

Wilt thou count Me present notwithstanding all,

Still believe I’m working ever in thy soul?

When I give to others what I thee deny,

Flood them with My sunshine, wholly pass thee by,

Wilt thou still believe in My strong love for thee,

Yield thee to My purpose whatsoe’er it be?

 When I to thy pleadings seem no heed to pay,

And thy foes grow bolder, claim thee as their prey,

Though toward thee I’m silent, wilt thou stand the test,

On My Word of promise lay thee down to rest?

If to these My questions thou canst answer “Yes,”

Thou shalt be forever one I love the best.

To the inner circle of My favored few,

Thou shalt be admitted, and My glory view.
