"We are losing our attitude of wonder, of contemplation, of listening to creation and thus we no longer manage to interpret within it what Benedict XVI calls 'the rhythm of the love-story between God and man.'"
+ Pope Francis
Orbital Interlude—and asking for a prayer
Lately, I've been doing most of my writing for my book on Catholic Ecology, so please have patience if I'm not blogging as much as I have. And please say a prayer for my first book project!
In the meantime, I have to share this video—actually a series of photographs from the International Space Station that have been made into this work of art by Knate Myers. Breathtaking. It's a great reminder of the majesty of creation and the intimate partner that man's technology can be. (And here's my viewing tip: The accompanying music is wonderful, but lower the volume just a bit and have someone you love read from Genesis Chapter 1. Oh, and select full-screen. Now that's Revelation!)
