REMEMBER: THIS TUESDAY, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception is a HOLYDAY OF OBLIGATION DECEMBER 6 GRUDNIA IV. THE MESSAGE OF EACH CREATURE IN THE HARMONY OF CREATION 84.

3 REMEMBER: THIS TUESDAY, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception is a HOLYDAY OF OBLIGATION DECEMBER 6 GRUDNIA IV. THE MESSAGE OF EACH CREATURE IN THE HARMONY OF CREATION 84. Our insistence that each human being is an image of God should not make us overlook the fact that each creature has its own purpose. None is superfluous. The entire material universe speaks of God s love, his boundless affection for us. Soil, water, mountains: everything is, as it were, a caress of God. The history of our friendship with God is always linked to particular places which take on an intensely personal meaning; we all remember places, and revisiting those memories does us much good. Anyone who has grown up in the hills or used to sit by the spring to drink, or played outdoors in the neighborhood square; going back to these places is a chance to recover something of their true selves. 85. God has written a precious book, whose letters are the multitude of created things present in the universe.[54] The Canadian bishops rightly pointed out that no creature is excluded from this manifestation of God: From panoramic vistas to the tiniest living form, nature is a constant source of wonder and awe. It is also a continuing revelation of the divine.[55] The bishops of Japan, for their part, made a thoughtprovoking observation: To sense each creature singing the hymn of its existence is to live joyfully in God s love and hope.[56] This contemplation of creation allows us to discover in each thing a teaching which God wishes to hand on to us, since for the believer, to contemplate creation is to hear a message, to listen to a paradoxical and silent voice.[57] We can say that alongside revelation properly so-called, contained in sacred Scripture, there is a divine manifestation in the blaze of the sun and the fall of night.[58] Paying attention to this manifestation, we learn to see ourselves in relation to all other creatures: I express myself in expressing the world; in my effort to decipher the sacredness of the world, I explore my own.[59] 86. The universe as a whole, in all its manifold relationships, shows forth the inexhaustible riches of God. Saint Thomas Aquinas wisely noted that multiplicity and variety come from the intention of the first agent who willed that what was wanting to one in the representation of the divine goodness might be supplied by another,[60] inasmuch as God s goodness could not be represented fittingly by any one creature.[61] Hence we need to grasp the variety of things in their multiple relationships.[62] We understand better the importance and meaning of each creature if we contemplate it within the entirety of God s plan. As the Catechism teaches: God wills the interdependence of creatures. The sun and the moon, the cedar and the little flower, the eagle and the sparrow: the spectacle of their countless diversities and inequalities tells us that no creature is self-sufficient. Creatures exist only in dependence on each other, to complete each other, in the service of each other.[63]
