Reflection Starter from St. Paul of the Cross

"Listen to the sermon preached to you by the flowers, the trees, the shrubs, the sky, and the whole world. Notice how they preach to you a sermon full of love, of praise of God, and how they invite you to glorify the sublimity of that sovereign Artist who has given them being." - Saint Paul of the Cross, whose memory the Church celebrates today (20 October) in the U.S.
