“Faith should not exclude the pursuit of knowledge (science), because discovering the laws of nature is discovering the wisdom of God.”

Francis Huberty James · Academic Affairs Magazine

Scripture

Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal things, and the glory of a king to find out things.

Reflection

God's glory does not deliberately hinder human reason, but rather buries truth like jewels within all things, inviting us to explore. Xiu Yaochun realized that studying science (physical inquiry) and reading the Bible are not contradictory, because truth is unified. The glory of a king lies not in his lofty power, but in his responsibility and humility to investigate matters. We often feel anxious about unseen answers, forgetting that "concealment" itself is a sacred romance. When we diligently seek and examine the laws of nature and life, we are not merely learning knowledge, but walking alongside the wisdom of the Creator.
