Thou hast taught me
that faith is nothing else than receiving thy kindness;
that it is an adherence to Christ, a resting on him,
love clinging to him as a branch to the tree,
to seek life and vigor from him.
I thank thee for showing me the vast difference
between knowing things by reason,
and knowing them by a spirit of faith.
By reason, I know that a thing is so; by faith I know it as it is.
I have seen thee by reason and have not been amazed.
I have seen thee as thou art in the Son
and have been ravished to behold thee.
I bless thee that I am thine in my Savior, Jesus.

Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Matthew 6:28
He has made everything beautiful in its time. Ecc. 3:11
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together in Christ. Eph 2:4+5
