It Is The Lord!

Canon S45

"All wisdom comes from the Lord and endures with him forever.

"The grains of sand, the drops of rain and the days of eternity, who can count them?

"The height of heaven, the extent of the earth and the depths of the abyss, who can measure them?

"Wisdom was created before all things and the prudent intellect before the beginning of time.

"To whom was the source of Wisdom revealed? Who has known her secret designs?

"One alone is wise and greatly to be feared. The One who is seated upon his throne.

"The Lord himself created Wisdom. He looked on her and knew her value. He poured her out over all his works; upon all mortal beings, in accordance with his goodness. He lavished her on those who love him."

SIRACH 1:1-10

"When I begin to puff up with pride,
remind me again, Lord, who is Lord."
