Marvelous Mentality

"I have more understanding than all my teachers: for Thy testimonies are my meditation" (Psalm 119:99). "The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvelous thing, that ye know not from whence He is, and yet He hath opened mine eyes.... They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out" (John 9:30,34).

What marvelous mentality!
What is plain they cannot find!
Having eyes, they cannot see;
The lost are marvelously blind.

Has not the Lord bestowed on man
A logical mentality?
Indeed He has, for he can plan,
Articulating sensibly.

How strange this inconsistency:
The mind of man demands
A cause/effect reality,
And thereby understands.

But talk about eternity,
And blindness settles in.
The evidence that's plain to see,
Is veiled by their sin.

Yet God would take away the veil
And teach them what is right.
All who seek Him shall prevail,
For God will give them sight.
