God flows through all things; God is present in everything and makes of all reality a temple. And then, vice versa, everything is in God. . . . "It is in him that we live and move and have our being." (Acts 17:28). . . . The world is not only a bridge to God. It is also the place where God is honored and worshipped, and the place where we meet God. . . . We and the world exist so that we may accept the invitation to share in God's superabundance.
— Leonardo Boff, Ecology and Liberation
