The Bountiful Vision of God
"Beauty stirs up in us an insatiable desire to see, to stare, to behold and be held. For in some deep corner of ourselves we know that we become what we see, what we gaze upon--and so, our hearts hunger for nothing less than the bountiful vision of God." Nathan D. Mitchell, "The Amen Corner: Being Good and Being Beautiful," Worship 74:6 [November 2000]: 552).
