The problem involved is too vast for our limited minds

 

The human mind, no matter how highly trained, cannot grasp the universe. 

We are in the position of a little child, entering a huge library whose walls are covered to the ceiling with books in many different tongues. 

The child knows that someone must have written those books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. 

The child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books, a mysterious order, which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects. 

That,  is the attitude of the human mind, even the greatest and most cultured, toward God. 

We see a universe marvelously arranged, obeying certain laws, but we understand the laws only dimly. 

Our limited minds cannot grasp the mysterious force that sways the constellations.
