In all Our Delights

'In God alone 
is there 
primordial 
and true
delight, 
and in all our delights 
it is this delight 
that we are 
seeking.'

St. Bonaventure

This Delight


'In God alone 
is there primordial and true delight, 
and in all our delights it is this delight that we are seeking.'

So Many Signs


If there is anyone who is not enlightened by this sublime magnificence of created things,  he is blind.... if there is anyone who, seeing all these works of God, does not praise Him, he is dumb; if there is anyone who, from so many signs, cannot perceive God, that man is foolish.
