Unnamed poem read and written by Ashton Gustafson

Sometimes it takes a billion stars to get the point across.

They shine the way, call our names, and beg us to come on.

There will be uncertainty on the way to Eternity.

But I believe that up His sleeve Divinity holds beauty.

Sometimes our songs can right our wrongs and say what words can’t say.

When our melodies make jubilee that’s the story of our days.

There will be uncertainty on the way to Eternity.

But when poetry lacks symmetry that’s where you’ll find its beauty.

Sometime it takes a billion storms for God to fill the seas.

Could the same be true for the me and you we call Humanity?

There will be uncertainty on the way to Eternity.

But I believe that up His sleeve Divinity holds beauty.

Vitamin See

For those of us blessed with vision, so much of our experiences in life hinges in our eyes.

If you want to be a skeptic, you will find endless reasons to be skeptical.

If you want to be a pessimist, you will find plenty to be pessimistic about.

What we see will be predicted by what we want to see and why we want to see it.

Jesus once said, “Your eyes are windows into your body. If you open your eyes wide in wonder and belief, your body fills up with light. If you live squinty-eyed in greed and distrust, your body is a dank cellar.” Matthew 6:22

Light > Dank

The Uncertainty that Comes With the Alchemy of Our Days

Sometimes it takes a billion stars to get the point across.

Yes, these stars will forever continue beg us to be explorers, but we shouldn’t hold our breath for them to tell us what we’re going to find.

There will be uncertainty. Nevertheless, we alchemize passionate participation with eager anticipation into our wonder-filled joy.

Rest assured, all kinds of beauty will be there to hold.

All because we tuned into the Divine shine.

Q & A

In the end, our greatest questions will end up being our greatest answers that we will live and light up our worlds with.

Ask the right ones.

Seek what’s beautiful.

Knock on the door of mystery.

It will be given.

You will find.

Doors will open.
