But enough on the greatness of the sun and moon.  May He Who has given us intelligence to recognise in the smallest objects of creation the great wisdom of the Contriver make us find in great bodies a still higher idea of their Creator.  However, compared with their Author, the sun and moon are but a fly and an ant.  The whole universe cannot give us a right idea of the greatness of God; and it is only by signs, weak and slight in themselves, often by the help of the smallest insects and of the least plants, that we raise ourselves to Him.  Content with these words let us offer our thanks, I to Him who has given me the ministry of the Word, you to Him who feeds you with spiritual food; Who, even at this moment, makes you find in my weak voice the strength of barley bread.  May He feed you for ever, and in proportion to your faith grant you the manifestation of the Spirit cf. 1 Cor. xii. 7. in Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom be glory and power for ever and ever.  Amen.
