Quote by Charles Spurgeon

“All earthly suns have their spots: the fair world itself has its wilderness. We cannot love the whole of most lovely things: but Christ Jesus is gold without alloy-light without darkness- glory without cloud. 'Yea, He is altogether lovely.'”

Quote by Charles Spurgeon

Work

Morning and Evening

The title Morning and Evening suggests a structure or thematic concern with binary oppositions and daily rhythms. In literary and philosophical traditions, the pairing of morning and evening frequently serves as a metaphor for the span of human life, with morning representing youth, beginnings, and potential, while evening signifies maturity, endings, and reflection. The work may explore how human consciousness experiences and interprets these temporal divisions, or it may use the framework of a single day to examine broader existential questions. Without more specific identifying information, the content remains open to interpretation, though the title itself invokes the universal experience of diurnal cycles and the cultural meanings attached to different times of day across various societies and historical periods. more

“Science offers the boldest metaphysics of the age. It is a thoroughly human construct, driven by the faith that if we dream, press to discover, explain, and dream again, thereby plunging repeatedly into new terrain, the world will somehow come clearer and we will grasp the true strangeness of the universe. And the strangeness will all prove to be connected, and make sense.”

“Faith is a state of openness or trust...In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all. Instead they are holding tight. But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to the truth, whatever it might turn out to be.”
