NATURE
“All are but parts of one stupendous whole. Whose body nature is and God the soul.”
“All are but parts of one stupendous whole. Whose body nature is and God the soul.”
– Alexander Pope
I belong to this world, this mighty universe — but more importantly, it belongs to me. I have a responsibility in this world and to this world. No longer can I abrogate my responsibility. God created and is creating through me. What I say, what I do, how I feel is important. I am important. I am terrific — because God made me and works through me.
Sometimes I feel the one-ness. I stand on a mountain top and look at the rolling hills beyond and I feel noble. The birds sing, the streams murmur and I feel a tremendous sense of joy.
But I also feel the pain of the world. The people suffering, the pointlessness of man’s violence and the injustice of prejudice. All this I feel, too.
Spirituality involves this mixture, the paradox of my being an angel in the dust!
