God is Everywhere

May 6, 2026

God is everywhere. His truth and his love pervade all things as the light and the heat of the sun pervade our atmosphere.  But just as the rays of the sun do not set fire to anything by themselves, so God does not touch our souls with the fire of supernatural knowledge and experience without Christ.

– from New Seeds of Contemplation (1961), by Thomas Merton (1915–1968)
