"True wisdom begins with God, because if you do not know God, you do not know the
purpose of things and if you do not know the purpose of a thing you will ultimately abuse
it. God created the world. If you don’t know the purpose of the world you will abuse it.
You will either abuse it or you will worship it. God gives us marriage. If we don’t know
the purpose of marriage we will abuse it. God gives us our families. If you don’t know
the purpose of a family you will abuse it. God gives us architecture and science and
literature and art. And if we do not know the purpose of those things, we will abuse it.
And the purpose of those things is to magnify the wisdom of God, to magnify the mercy
of God, to magnify the redemptive acts of God. If you do not know that, you will abuse
the thing and all of the sudden man becomes the center and focal point of all of your
architecture, all of your art, all of your music, all of your science."

I lost where i got this from, but i really liked it! Hopefully, i will find the link...
