Did Gauguin see the light in the depths of darkness?

Deep in the silence, light holds its breath, waiting.

Gauguin posed these questions in the darkness near the end of his life.

"Where do we come from?"

Who are we?

Where are we going?

And then another question quietly arises.

Did he end up in despair?

Or did they see a glimmer of hope amidst despair?

This question is not a cry of despair,

It looks like light gently leaking through a rift in the seal.

When a person views the world from their own perspective,

The answer remains hidden, and only the question sinks deeper.

But beneath the silence, there is a light that has yet to be named.

I'm waiting, holding my breath.

The Bible speaks of the name of that light.

In the beginning, God spoke.

In the beginning, God breathed out His breath.

In the beginning, God said, “It is good.”

Before people ask questions,

The story of God had quietly begun to unfold.

Where do we come from? From the fountain of God's life.

Who are we? —Those who are in the image of God and remembered by God.

Where are we going? To the city where God dwells, the New Jerusalem.

There, tears, death, and sorrow no longer have a name.

Instead of people being afraid of "where they are going",

A place where the revelation of where God is taking us will be revealed.

The world calls loss reality and hope an illusion.

However, the gospel of the Kingdom of God is

Unlock the sealed questions and bring back what has been lost.

It is not a power to repair the past,

It is the power that guides us towards the light that was predetermined from the beginning.

Gauguin's question, too,

This may not be the end of despair, but rather a rift marking the beginning of light.

That light still breathes quietly in the depths of our questions.
