​We are created to read the book of creation so that we may know the Author of Life.
Ilia Delio, Franciscan Sister,
theologian and author,
founder of the Center for Christogenesis
Divine revelation comes in two forms:
Scripture: The Bible - which is considered the Word of God.
The natural world - which is a way to understand God.
Visible creation is like a book in which we read the word of God.
God's creatures express the divine mind.
Thomas Aquinas - Summa Theologica​

​
A person who knew nothing but creatures
would never need to attend any sermons,
for every creature is full of God
and is a book.
Meister Eckhart
Respond
