420. 'Surely nature cannot have a purpose as its aim and arrange purposes into successions and forms? Only a wise being can do this; and no one but God, whose wisdom is infinite, could so arrange and form the universe. How could anyone else foresee and provide all that is needed by human beings for food and clothing, food from the fruits of the earth and from animals, and clothing from the same sources? One of the wonders is that the lowly insects called silk-worms clothe with silk and magnificently adorn both women and men, from queens and kings to maids and menservants. Or that such lowly insects as bees are should supply wax for illumination, to contribute their brilliance to churches and courts? These and many more facts are authoritative proofs that the Lord's workings produce from Himself through the spiritual world everything to be seen in nature.
