God in All Things

     These wise words are from Meister Eckhart, a thirteenth century German theologian and mystic.

Apprehend God in all things,
for God is in all things.

Every single creature is full of God
and is a book about God.

Every creature is a word of God.

If I spent enough time with the tiniest creature–
even a caterpillar–
I would never have to prepare a sermon.  So full of God
is every creature.

    What a great quotation! Meister Eckharet is frequently quoted in Divine Science teachings and services. The following can be found in its literature:

    DIVINE SCIENCE STATEMENT OF BEING:
    God is all, both invisible and visible.
    One Presence, One Mind, One Power is all.
    This One that is all is perfect life, perfect love, and perfect substance.
    Man is the individualized expression of God and is ever one with this
    perfect life, perfect love, and perfect substance.
