"I went down like that to the laundry room where they were scrubbing for all they were worth, and I tried to do like the others. I splashed and soaked myself all over, but that didn't matter, I was thrilled! Oh, you see, everything is delightful in Carmel, we find God at the wash just as at prayer. Everywhere is only Him. We live Him, we breathe Him. If you knew how happy I am, my horizon grows larger each day." - St. Elizabeth of the Trinity
I think that is so well spoken for how we are to take delight in God in everything. As I'm typing. The creativity of God must be so magnificent if a mirror dimly allows the creation of a keyboard by man. Like how amazing is our God if we are but a dim reflection? Whoa. It's absolutely marvelous!
Everywhere is only Him indeed!
