Recognizing God through the wonders of creation ....

BD 2067 September 12th 1941

The utilization of divine grace also presupposes the will to come close to God, and since this will earns man everything he asks for, God's grace also comes to him unmeasured. For the willing person also utilizes grace, as this again increases willpower. In endeavouring to live in a way that is pleasing to God, his heart is also willing to love and, thanks to God's grace, also able to love. So for the time being man needs nothing more than to recognize God and himself as His creature, unworthy and small in relation to Him, and to ask Him, then he also asks Him in the right way and this humble request is granted. But in order to recognize God, it is enough to delve deeply into the divine creation, to contemplate the works of wonder and to relate oneself to them. Serious thoughts about this will certainly lead him to the conclusion that he himself is in an affirmative attitude towards his creator, and then the desire to come close to Him will awaken in him. Then God's love will take hold of him and help him to reach the height .... It is only ineffective where the human being remains in the will to reject. For his attitude towards God is up to him. As soon as the spirit of arrogance prevails in him, the influence of God's adversary, man blindly passes by the marvellous works of divine creation. Consequently, he does not take the right attitude towards his creator either. He wants to deny Him because he does not want to submit, or his attitude towards God is neither humble nor demanding. He does not request God's grace, consequently it cannot be granted to him, for he is endowed with gifts for the time of his life on earth as a human being which can and should bring about his free decision .... If he does not use this gift, i.e., if he does not use his thinking and willing in the right way, then he also decides, but not in favour of God but against him .... And then he makes the bestowal of divine grace impossible. Without this, however, it is also not possible to reach the heights. The will of man is the deciding factor; it cannot be directed by God. Man himself must freely decide in favour of God, only then is his spiritual ascent guaranteed ....

Amen
