The great I AM is more intelligent than they all. I could never run in His circle.1 My wisest speech is but unintelligible mutterings, my greatest offerings are pitifully small, Yet He condescends to my level of inability and reaches down where I am, and offers to embrace me in mercy.

Knowest thou the condescension of God?
