a few years ago
in 2010
two things happened simultaneously
exactly as they are happening this year
my hon presented three lectures on "Why Christian? Why Catholic?"
and I was asked to show some of my photographs
for the Main Street Morgantown Arts Walk
come downtown Friday night
I have a collection of photographs at the Elegant Alley Cat
from 6-9 p.m
When God took on flesh
the uncreated and the created
the eternal and the temporal
the divine and the human became united.
This unity meant
that all that is mortal now points to the immortal
all that is finite now points to the infinite
In and through Jesus
all creation has become like a splendid veil
through which the face of God is revealed to us
This is called the sacramental quality of the created order.
All that is... is sacred
because all that is speaks of God's redeeming love.
Seas and winds, mountains and trees, sun, moon, and stars
and all the animals and people
have become sacred windows offering us glimpses of God.
