"There is not one little blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make men rejoice.
In herbs, trees, and fruit, besides being useful in various ways, he planned to please us by their gracious lines and pleasant odors.
Should the Lord have attracted our eyes to the beauty of flowers, and our sense of smell to pleasant odors, and should it then be a sin to drink them in?
In one word, has he not made many things worthy of our attention that go far beyond our needs? Ps. 104.15
-- John Calvin
