Ioannes Paulus PP. II
1993.08.06 The splendour of truth shines forth in all the works of the Creator and, in a special way, in man, created in the image and likeness of God (cf. Gen 1:26). Truth enlightens man's intelligence and shapes his freedom, leading him to know and love the Lord. Hence the Psalmist prays:
"Let the light of your face shine on us, O Lord" (Ps 4:6).
