I see him, though not now;
I behold him, though not near:
A star shall advance from Jacob,
and a staff shall rise from Israel.
—Numbers 24:17
The writer and Nobel Prize winner André Gide reminds
us that “ideals are like stars: we can never reach
them, but we can use them to help us plot our course.”
The star from Jacob will be forever beyond our reach,
yet it will dwell within us always, guiding our every step.
Numbers 24:2–7; 15–17
Psalm 25
Matthew 21:23–27
