“We can love religion as we need rituals, but The Holy Spirit is a bird, free to fly and land where it likes. We don't actually need 'religion' in order to have a relationship with The Holy Spirit. Too many wars an violence over religion.We need to see it's all the same spirit and we are part of that spirit so we shouldn't be fighting over what name we call it. It's a free bird.” NeedsWarSpiritOrderFightingNamesViolenceLandHolyBirdLikesHoly SpiritRitual Author:Sinead O'Connor
“Witches try to 'connect' with the world around them. Witchcraft, they say, is about the tactile, intuitive understanding of the turn of the seasons, the song of the birds; it is the awareness of all things as holy.” WorldTryingSongTurnsUnderstandingNatureAwarenessHolyBirdAll ThingsSeasonsOnenessHolinessWitchIntuitiveWitchcraftTactile Author:Tanya Luhrmann

“Children should be encouraged to search out in nature the objects that illustrate Bible teachings, and to trace in the Bible the similitudes drawn from nature. They should search out, both in nature and in Holy Writ, every object representing Christ, and those also that He employed in illustrating truth. Thus may they learn to see Him in tree and vine, in lily and rose, in sun and star. They may learn to hear His voice in the song of birds, in the sighing of the trees, in the rolling thunder, and in the music of the sea. And every object in nature will repeat to them His precious lessons.” ShouldMayChildrenSongStarsVoiceChristSunTreeSeaTeachingObjectsHolyLessonsBirdRoseRepeatsRollingEmployedThunderRepresentingLiliesVinesBe EncouragedIllustratingSun And Stars Author:Ellen G.

They got it filled with holy water, free for the taking.” “Brilliant,” I said to Lula.

“Through primrose tufts, in that green bower, The periwinkle trails its wreath; And 'tis my faith that every flower Enjoys the air it breathes. The birds around me hopped and played, Their thoughts I cannot measure; But the least motion which they made, It seemed a thrill of pleasure. The budding twigs spread out their fan, To catch the breezy air; And I must think, do all I can That there was pleasure there. If this belief from heaven be sent, If such be Nature's holy plan, Have I not reason to lament What man has made of man?” IfsThinkingMenMadeI CanReasonBeliefHeavenEnjoyPleasurePlansAirFansFlowerHolySpringBirdGreenSpreadBreatheMade ItThrillTrailsLamentTwigsWreathsBreezyPeriwinkle Author:William Wordsworth
