Dr. William Garner Sutherland

[Perdurabo]

A favorite quotes of Dr. Sutherland:

“You will find space between if you have the vision to look in between….

Out on the ocean shore, you will see a big rock. Did you ever stop to think of the space between the layers of the rock itself? The solid rock? When the tide comes in and the waves roll over that rock, you will find it crumbling into sand. Sand! Rock! Those grains of sand have a lot of space between them. Out there, there is a processing plant that takes up sand to send to glass makers. The glass window that you look through came from that sand.

Ever stop to think of what you are? Whether or not that earth from which you were formed was in the glass form of earth? Stop to think of that? The light from the sun passes through that glass. Does it touch that glass? It lights up the room and is reflected.

Just for a moment, think of your body being formed from that glass. That you are a glass house through which this Breath of Life may be reflected. Not even touching your house, your glass house, but being reflected through and through.

See that sun reflecting itself upon the moon and then see the reflection from the moon all through the ocean. Reflection that does not touch the moon, that does not touch the ocean, but lights them up. Makes a beautiful picture. Light! Liquid Light!”
