I am the fiery life of the essence of God; I am the flame above the beauty in the fields; I shine in the waters; I burn in the sun, the moon, and the stars. And with the airy wind, I quicken all things vitally by an unseen, all-sustaining life.
Holy persons draw to themselves all that is earthly.
There is the music of Heaven in all things.
When the words come, they are merely empty shells without the music. They live as they are sung, for the words are the body and the music the spirit.
