I had, a few days ago, an insight which consoled me very much.

Mother Thérèse, August 10, 1866

 

Saint Francis, faithful to Scripture, invites us to see nature as a magnificent book in which God speaks to us and grants us a glimpse of his infinite beauty and goodness. “Through the greatness and the beauty of creatures one comes to know by analogy their maker” (Wis 13:5); indeed, “his eternal power and divinity have been made known through his works since the creation of the world” (Rom 1:20)…

Rather than a problem to be solved, the world is a joyful mystery to be contemplated with gladness and praise.

Pope Francis, Laudati Sì, n°12
