“We are excluded, not by where we are, but by an unwillingness to go farther. We are welcomed in when we wish to seek, to change, to be changed. We can hear John’s answer if we can share his question: ‘Beloved, where have you hidden?”
Iain Matthew, The Impact of God: Soundings from St John of the Cross
“Let Yourselves be carried by God" John of the Cross from "The Impact of God”
Iain Matthew

“That is John’s amazing understanding of creation: the universe, each element in it, each event in it, and the web of those events held together – all thought, all friendship, all history – are given being by the eyes of Another, eyes ‘communicating’ being to the world. Such a creation is flamboyant in its beauty, as the Word of God, glancing kindly but wildly, ‘scatters a thousand graces’ and floods the cosmos with traces of who he is.11”
