“Every object in nature is impressed with God's footsteps, and every day repeats the wonders of creation. There is not an object, be it pebble or pearl, weed or rose, the flower-spangled sward beneath, or the star-spangled sky above, not a worm or an angel, a drop of water or a boundless ocean, in which intelligence may not discern, and piety adore, the providence of Him who took our nature that He might save our souls.” MaySoulMightStarsWaterNatureWonderSkyCreationObjectsFlowerOceanAngelRoseRepeatsWeedProvidenceImpressedAdorePearlsWormsPietyBoundlessFootstepsPebblesDrop Of Water Author:Thomas Guthrie

“He rose and turned toward the lights of town. The tidepools bright as smelterpots among the dark rocks where the phosphorescent seacrabs clambered back. Passing through the salt grass he looked back. The horse had not moved. A ship's light winked in the swells.

“Love would never be a promise of a rose garden unless it is showered with light of faith, water of sincerity and air of passion. Sometimes we make love with our eyes. Sometimes we make love with our hands. Sometimes we make love with our bodies. Always we make love with our hearts. If I could reach up and hold a star for every time you've made me smile, the entire evening sky would be in the palm of my hand. To love another person is to see the face of God.” IfsHeartPersonsMadeSometimesBodyHandsLightWould BeEyeFacesPassionStarsWaterAirSkyPromiseGardenRoseEveningIf I CouldSincerityMaking LovePalmsRose GardenEvening Sky Author:Victor Hugo
