Another concept from the wise priest (Padre Hugo) of my parish in my
hometown.
God is the First Cause, but He is a spirit He can't communicate with us
in the same way as we people do. Therefore, He uses second causes.
Second causes could be anything, someone who tells us something when we
most need it. A verse in the bible that gives a new breath. A scene in
nature that let us see the huge love of God, and gives us hope.
Nevertheless, we need to be alert, we need to be in connection with God.
If we are not, all these things will pass by and we are not going to be
able to notice them.

Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit and they that worship him must worship him in
spirit and in truth.

Good point, John

LW - Padre Hugo seems like a very wise person indeed. You are lucky to
partake of the inspirational thoughts of a wise man on a regular basis.
You, my friend, seem to be paying attention to the second causes. Don't
ever change, you are beautiful.
