Chapter 7 verse 7
“There is nothing whatsoever higher than Me. All this is
strung in Me, as clusters of gems on a string”
To keep it simple, he states that any individual does not
need to look beyond Him for ultimate surrender. Now that this is settled, he
turns poetic by saying that all his creation is like a precious gem strung on a
string with degrees of freedom and free will to move about that string but will
stay within the string. 2 important points to note- first is that all beings
created by Him are precious like rare gems or pearls. Let’s be grateful that we
are born as human beings to have ability to recognize this good fortune.
Secondly, if we stuck to the string woven by God, we will ultimately adorn his
neck. Straying away from his grip or circle of influence will not do us mortals
any good.
