"I believe that every fact in nature is a revelation of God...from the moment when we first come into contact with the world, it is to us a revelation of God, his things seen by which we come to know the things unseen."
"The truth of a thing, then, is the blossom of it, the thing it is made for, the topmost stone set on with rejoicing...in anything that God has made, in the glory of it, be it sky or flower or human face, we see the glory of God, there a true imagination is beholding a truth of God."
"The heavens and the earth are around us that it may be possible for us to speak of the unseen by the seen, for the outermost husk of creation has correspondence with the deeper things of the Creator. He is not a God that hides himself, but a God who made all that he might reveal himself."
Yes, this reminds me of our grandson that I just left in Alaska. At almost 11 months he is experiencing his first outside spring in seeing things in such a new way. It was so interesting to watch him and the fascination that he had in every detail. I often thought that this is such a marvelous way to remind us to look at the world from the eyes and prospective of a child. Thanks Nita for sharing this. Nonie
