L.M. FieldsI refuse to put God into a little box I can handle, for that would insult us both.
About This Quote
When a person refuses to put a deity into a little box they can handle, they are not doing their reverence justice. The term “little box” is a description of the size of the box in which a deity would be placed. The more people can handle something, the more they can safely imagine it. A deity’s place in the universe is too big for our minds to handle, so if we cannot handle something, we cannot fully imagine it.
