Might Be Displayed
They asked whose sin had sealed his eyes—
which were dim.
He said, "that God's work might be displayed
in him."
The answer was simple
yet it was complex:
Not who causes sin,
but what causes God to be manifest.
Don't stare at the illness
and wonder why,
But look to the caregiver
standing nearby—
That is where God's work
might be displayed,
The smelting fire
where silver is made,
Burning the dross,
refining the one who stays.
God's work might be seen
when you witness their caring ways.
