Once again in his brilliant way of communicating Einstein brings God
right into the secular conversation unhesitatingly associating Him
with a universal principle we all do well to learn; simple is best.
Two things impress me about this quote. The first has to do with the
subject of simplicity. All my activities and experiences in life
have demonstrated to me that choosing the simplest way is always the
best way. I don’t mean the easiest way, for many simple things are
hard to achieve. Exercising is simple but hard to do consistently.
The second thing that impresses me about Einstein’s words is his
deliberate mention of God in his quote. I am not sure of the context
around which this quote is taken; but as a stand alone idea it is
very revealing. After all, anyone who mentions God in a secular
context stands the risk of being criticized or at least not taken
seriously since bringing religion into the matter often turns people
away. However Einstein knew that spirituality is inextricably
connected to life in all of its facets and cannot therefore be
disconnected or ignored from any explanation regarding cause and
affect in our world. Einstein was deliberate in his mentioning God
in his idea. In so doing he answers a long asked question about how
God answers prayer. Even among the most pious and religious of today
the question often goes unanswered, “How does God answer my
prayers?” Many of the faithful just don’t know.
What about you? Do you have a question that needs answering? Why not
put Einstein’s’ theory to a test. Ask your question and if the
solution is simple, consider that God has answered your prayer.
