Quote by Madeleine L'Engle

The foolish of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of god is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that may not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called, but God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath choses the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty. And bade things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are.


The foolish of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of go

Summary

This quote is from the Bible, specifically from the book of Corinthians. It highlights the irony and wisdom of God's incomprehensible nature. It suggests that in God's eyes, what may be considered foolish or weak by human standards has the potential to be wiser and stronger compared to what may be considered wise or mighty. God often chooses the seemingly insignificant or despised things of the world to bring down the powerful and show his strength.
