Publisher's Synopsis
"There is an old legend about Saint Augustine that was well known in the Middle Ages. As the story goes, Augustine was walking along the shore, pondering the mystery of the Trinity. As he walked, he came upon a boy running back and forth between the sea and a small hole in the sand while holding a shell in his hands. Curious, Augustine asked the boy what he was doing. 'Don't you see, sir? I am emptying the sea into this little pool I have dug.' Augustine replied, 'Son, you can't do that! I will sooner empty the sea into this pool than you will manage to get the mystery of the Most Holy Trinity into your head!' The point of the illustration is simple. All of our study and meditation on God is like trying to empty the sea into a little pool with nothing but a seashell."
