Enarrationes in psalmos 144,13
Quote 10 21
Contemplate the earth and see its beauty, fecundity, and powers, the growth of the seeds, the fertility of the fields, which, without sowing, sprout; contemplate, and by your scrutiny in a certain manner you interrogate it; the examination itself is a question. When have you investigated and examined filled with awe, have found the quantity of their energies, the greatness of their beauty, the excellence of their power, immediately it comes to your mind that they cannot make themselves and they come from the Creator. And what you have discovered in them is like a voice of their confession that you may praise their Creator.
