Is There Ever Really No One There?

I have always liked like limerics. Once again, I heard this quoted by Ravi Zacharias and so looked it up. It's a good reminder that nothing exists in a vacuum. Regardless of where we are, we are seen by our Creator. This should be a good reminder to us when we are making a personal decision that we think will affect no one.


There was a young man who said, "God
Must think it exceedingly odd
If he finds that this tree
Continues to be
When there's no one about in the Quad."

REPLY
Dear Sir: Your astonishment's odd:
I am always about in the Quad.
And that's why the tree
Will continue to be,
Since observed by Yours faithfully, GOD.

~ Ronald Knox
