I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station through which God speaks to us every hour if we will only tune in.
By reading the scriptures I am so renewed that all nature seems renewed around me and with me. The sky seems to be a pure a cooler blue the trees a deeper green. The whole world is charged with the glory of God and I feel fire and music under my feet.
What is human warfare but just this an effort to make the laws of God and nature take sides with one party.
You may make some mistakes - but that doesn't make you a sinner. You've got the very nature of God on the inside of you.
We see God face to face every hour and know the savor of Nature.
All men are by nature equal made all of the same earth by one Workman and however we deceive ourselves as dear unto God is the poor peasant as the mighty prince.
God and Nature first made us what we are and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement.
We need to find God and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees flowers grass- grows in silence see the stars the moon and the sun how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
There is no gardening without humility. Nature is constantly sending even its oldest scholars to the bottom of the class for some egregious blunder.
The garden suggests there might be a place where we can meet nature halfway.
