A nail-pierced hand holds the sceptre of the universe, and my knees bend before him.
The moral laws of the Universe are deeply embedded in the constitution of things. We do not break them - we break ourselves upon them.
All coming to Jesus has the feeling of homecoming upon it. All going away from Him has the sense of estrangement upon it. The rich young ruler went away from Jesus "sorrowful." Everybody does. Not only estrangement from God, but also estrangement from oneself. And the universe! And from life! You are not at home with life, unless you are at home with Life. And Jesus is Life!
To pass from estrangement from God to be a son of God is the basic fact of conversion. That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe.
The universe does not make sense without God.
