Sayings St. John Chrysostom ~ Nature

                        Nature is Our Best Teacher

From the creation, learn to admire the Lord!
And if any of the things which you see exceed your comprehension,
and you are not able to find the reason for its existence,
then for this reason, glorify the Creator
that the wisdom of His works surpasses your own understanding.
Indeed the magnitude and beauty of creation, and also the very manner of it, display a God Who is the artificer of the universe.
He has made the mode of this creation to be our best teacher,
compounding all things in a manner that transcends the course of nature.

            
~ St. John Chrysostom (347 - 407)

On the Statutes 12:7
