But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, Do it again to the sun.; and every evening, Do it again to the moon. It may not be automatic monotony that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never gotten tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.
