X
God showed me a little thing,
the size of a hazelnut,
and it was round as a ball.
I looked at it with the eye
of my understanding and thought,
“What may this be?”
And it was generally answered thus:
"It is all that is made."
I marveled how it might last,
for it seemed it might suddenly
have sunk into nothing
because of its littleness.
And I was answered
in my understanding:
"It lasts and ever shall,
because God loves it."
Julian of Norwich
