It drew closer, ever closer, through an infinitude of time, and he did not move.

(Love of Life and Other Stories, by Jack London)

We know that God is everywhere; but certainly we feel His presence most when His works are on the grandest scale spread before us; and it is in the unclouded night-sky, where His worlds wheel their silent course, that we read clearest His infinitude, His omnipotence, His omnipresence.
