Divine Love and Wisdom #29

29. No one can deny that in God we find love and wisdom together in their very essence. He loves us all out of the love that is within him, and he guides us all out of the wisdom that is within him.

Further, if you look at the created universe with an eye to its design, it is so full of wisdom from love that you might say everything taken all together is wisdom itself. There are things without measure in such a pattern, both sequential and simultaneous, that taken all together they constitute a single entity. This is the only reason they can be held together and sustained forever.

54. The presence of the Divine in one recipient vessel is no different from its presence in another, but one created vessel differs from another. For no two things are identical, and it is the vessel therefore that differs. So it is that the image of the Divine has a varying appearance. (The presence of the Divine in vessels opposed to it will be explained in subsequent discussions.)
