'Every aspect of creation points in one way or another to some truth about God as he relates to us. Solid and dense though a mountain may be, it is like a shadow of the sheer vastness of God. The whole created order and the whole human world - real though they are, of course - were created to portray spiritual realities greater than themselves.'
Julian Hardyman, Jesus, Lover of My Soul: Fresh Pathways to Spiritual Passion, p.11.
