Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: "I cannot love God," said a thoughtless man, "for I have never seen Him." "Canst thou not?" responded his companion; " then thou canst do less than the little blind child who sits under the shade of the chestnut tree on the village green. She can love her father and mother, though she has never seen them, and will never see them to the latest hour of her life." There is truth here. It requires a special faculty to see God. And it is a terrible fact that this sense, the power of God-consciousness, is often all but entirely destroyed by sin.
