"St Augustine once said:

“Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars, and they pass themselves by without wonder.”

It’s true that many of us have been adventurers in all kinds of ways and have been interested in things that are of this world and have passed ourselves by without really wondering about the magnificence about the power, about the creativity, about the gift that is ourself.

Now the truth is that the mind of God has created each one of us – the heart of God is leading us,

and that we have been given the mind of God to create with – we can think as big as we want to think, and we can think as little as we choose, but we have been given this mind to think with.

So today ss we go thru life, let us not pass ourselves by without wonder."
