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.

Divine Love and Wisdom#153

153. There are two suns by which the Lord created all things - the sun in the spiritual world and the sun in the natural world. The Lord created all things by means of the sun in the spiritual world and not by means of the sun in the natural world, for the sun in the natural world is far below the sun in the spiritual world. The sun in the natural world is in an intermediate position. Above it is the spiritual world, and below it is the natural world. And the sun in the natural world was created to contribute subsidiary assistance. (We will say more about this assistance in subsequent discussions.)
