In time, viewing every moment as a gift orchestrated by divine intelligence becomes ingrained in your consciousness. No matter where you are, no matter what is in front of you, you see the hand of God at work.
Whoever does not see God in every place does not see God in any place.
Rabbi Elimelech
Look at the world through God’s eyes and the beauty and majesty of a falling leaf will leave you breathless.
We look too much to museums. The sun coming up in the morning is enough.
Romare Bearden
The sun has risen every morning since the world began, yet if we were fully present and our vision were pure, we would greet each sunrise with rejoicing.
Where others see but the dawn coming over the hill,
I see the sons of God shouting for joy.
William Blake
Walk through nature and listen as the meadows, trees, and birds serenade you with the celebratory song that echoes joyously throughout all creation.
Where is the fountain that throws up these flowers in a ceaseless outbreak of ecstasy?
Rabindranath Tagore
