Near and Distant, watercolour in sketchbook 

Day 7 (Tuesday)  

God is creative and self-giving, generously moving in all the near and distant corners of the universe. Nothing exists that does not find its source in God.  

The universe is 13.8 billion years old. There are very few human beings who have the technical capacity to actually imagine how vast the universe actually is (it is THAT big). “God is creative and self-giving,/generously moving/ in all the near and distant corners of the universe,” is a vast claim. And yet, in that vastness, we are precious. Contemplate “the near and distant corners of the universe.”
