God’s munificent creation out of His Living Word, forms all things into being, and makes them seen, and felt, for His spontaneous omnific Word, as the first manifestation of His munificent Spirit, of His Eternal Being, dwells beyond the alterity of this or that, of time and space, pervading all things, the seen and the unseen (OT), the self and the inmost self (NT), with His divine presence. In all of creation, His Word spells majesty; it spontaneously manifests the beauties and symmetries, not so much of our confounding tendencies —bound to rebellion and disobedience, perennially missing the mark, whether for autonomy’s and knowledge’s sake — but of a most enchanted cosmos whose spirit makes soar the heavens of the soul towards the grand beauty of creation,
Grand is the seen the light, to me—grand are the sky and stars Grand is the earth, and grand are lasting time and space, And grand their laws, so multiform, puzzling, evolutionary; But grander far the unseen soul of me, comprehending,
endowing all those,
Lighting the light, the sky and stars, delving the earth,
sailing the sea,
(What were all those, indeed, without thee, unseen soul?
of what amount without thee?)
More evolutionary, vast, puzzling, O my soul! More multiform far—more lasting thou than they.
Whitman, Grand is the Seen.
