Seeing God's Body

"Where other people see acreage, timber, soil and river frontage, I see God's body, or at least as much of it as I am able to see.  In the only wisdom I have at my disposal, the Creator does not live apart from creation but spans and suffuses it. When I take a breath, God's Holy Spirit enters me.  When a cricket speaks to me, I talk back.  Like everything else on earth, I am an embodied soul, who leaps to life when I recognize my kin.  If this makes me a pagan, then I am a grateful one."
