from the speck of dust to the galaxy of stars,
I knew God’s creation was one I could never fathom.

no matter how much I studied, read, heard, learned,
His work would always be far more than I could even understand.

but what I did not realize or trust nearly enough was
the absolute, divine, and natural beauty that is contained—
that He contains.

we create because He created,
we write because He wrote,
we are because He is.

and there is nothing created that is truly out of our grasp,
nothing that doesn’t show the beauty of God—
the pure and perfect music of God’s truth.

so when we write, create, sing, live,
and attentively listen, we witness to
the goodness of God.
