It is folly to think that only those things are of value to us
which we can intellectually understand. Is the vast deep of
the ocean nothing to me, since I can not move about freely and
closely examine its depths? And if I must confess that ’way
down are untold mysteries which human eye has never seen, what
matters it? Can not I rejoice in the roar of the waves, in the
ebb and flow of the tides, and in the flight of the clouds?
Why will men insist, with their poor, finite reasoning, on
fathoming the deep things of God, instead of drinking to the
full from the inexhaustible source of assurance and consolation?
(Text.)--E. F. STROTER, “The Glory of the Body of
Christ.”
