The World Does Not See Him

The world does not see the Spirit.
Because it does not recognize or discern his presence.
But the saddest part…
is that it also does not see him in the other.

It does not see God in the one who has fallen.
It does not see light in the one who is lost.
It does not see the Son in the middle of the mud.

But creation sees.
It groans.
Not because of the chaos.
But because it misses the children.
The lost children of God.

It waits, not for a new Messiah
but for Christ to be seen in those who are already children
and formed in those who do not yet know that they are.

Whoever is born of the Spirit
begins to see what the world does not see:
the Spirit… in the other.
