“And all the times I was picking up potatoes, I did have conversations with them. Too, I did have thinks of all their growing days there in the ground, and all the things they did hear. Earth-voices are glad voices, and earth-songs come up from the ground through the plants; and in their flowering, and in the days before these days are come, they do tell the earth-songs to the wind ... I have thinks these potatoes growing here did have knowings of star-songs.” ThinkingEarthSpiritReligionSongSpiritualityStarsVoiceKnowingGrowingWindConversationPlantCome UpGladThese DaysGardeningPotatoesFlowering Author:Opal Whiteley
“The factory of love encompasses all, but on some days, does it seem to be one of suffocation, squeezing its target too tightly? And on other days not tight enough? Or maybe that is the breath of a living love knowing when to protect, when to release, and when to protect again. For we are the products of an active love - the Father the creator, the Son the perfecter, the Spirit the supervisor - but just like in a factory, to deny the process is to ultimately create a defect of oneself.” DoeEnoughSeemsSpiritFatherProcessKnowingSonProductsProtectBreathsOneselfCreatorDenyActiveReleaseTargetFactoriesDefectsSqueezingSupervisors Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“I felt naked. I felt as perhaps a bird may feel in the clear air knowing the hawk wings above and will swoop. I began to feel the need of fellowship.

“The way in which I know Christianity is true is first and foremost is the basis of the witness of the Holy Spirit in my heart. And this gives me self-authenticating means of knowing Christianity is true wholly apart from the evidence. And therefore, even if in some historically contingent circumstances the evidence that I have available to me should turn against Christianity, I do not think that controverts the witness of the Holy Spirit.” IfsThinkingKnowsWayGivingShouldFirstsHeartMeanSelfSpiritTurnsChristianityKnowingMy HeartCircumstancesHolyEvidenceBasesGive MeAvailableWitnessHoly Spirit Author:William Lane Craig
“... the divine knowing - what the Father knows, and what the Word says in response to that knowing, and what the Spirit broods upon under the speaking of the Word - all that eternal intellectual activity isn't just daydreaming. It's the cause of everything that is. God doesn't find out about creation; he knows it into being. His knowing has hair on it. It is an effective act. What he knows, is. What he thinks, by the very fact of his thinking, jumps from no-thing into thing. He never thought of anything that wasn't.” ThinkingKnowsFactsSpiritFatherCausesKnowingCreationDivineHairActivityEternalIntellectualResponseDaydreaming Author:Robert Farrar Capon
“Poetic experience is distinct in nature from mystical experience. Because poetry emanates from the free creativity of the spirit,it is from the very start oriented toward expression, and terminates in a word proffered, it wants to speak; whereas mystical because it emanates from the deepest longing of the spirit bent on knowing, tends of itself toward silence and internal fruition. Poetic experience is busy with the created world and the enigmatic and innumerable relations of existents with one another, not with the Principle of Being.” WorldWantSpiritPoetrySpeakSilencePrinciplesCreativityKnowingPoetExpressionRelationLongingBusyInternalsPoeticMysticalBentFruitionEmanateEnigmaticMystical Experiences Author:Jacques Maritain
