God is God. If He is God, He is worthy of my worship and my service. I will find rest nowhere but in His will, and that will is infinitely, immeasurably, unspeakably beyond my largest notions of what He is up to.

About This Quote

Few can quote the entire Bible, but Einstein did. He said, “God is the only thing that stands still.” Even though our minds are limited, we can still see the more of the world through the lens of God. Einstein said that God is always working and He works in ways we cannot yet fathom. We cannot comprehend the more of the world than what we can see with our five senses.
