Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The House and Table of God a Book for His Children, Young and Old "The glory of God is to conceal the word, but the glory of the King is to find it out," says Solomon the Wise. Commenting upon the passage, Bacon remarks that the Divine Majesty, adopting the simple play of children, takes delight to hide His works, to the end to have them found out; and that kings can have no greater honour than to be God´s playfellows in this game. It is not the way of children only, to hide that they may be found; it is the way of all who love. The watching, the delay, the seeking keeps the mind alert and stirs the heart into activity, while the delight of each fresh discovery swells the volume of love. "Seek and you shall find" is the rule of life, of the whole life from its morning until night, in its intercourse with God. With Him it is not only the play of love that leads Him to lie hidden, though we know Him to be there; but a necessity of His ineffable nature, which, in this world, must ever remain in part remote and inaccessible, be He ever so near or friendly. Though He longs to be found, He does not force Himself upon unwilling hearts. The will of our heart is expressed and our moral nature invigorated by the search after Him, here and there, at every turn in the House of Nature, everywhere throughout the House of Grace. But we can never find or know Him so completely that nothing more remains to be known. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
