Think of math as a more precise version of spoken/written language. We use math to describe the world around us in very precise terms. Ultimately though, it's impossible to completely abstract mathematics from language - something that should be taken into account by a discerning reader. All we can do is observe that the behavior of an object in the physical world behaves as the model predicted. With enough observations and enough predictions, we can say with some certainty that the model is accurate. We invented the model, then we tested it and confirmed that it approximates reality, usually within a known range of uncertainty. The universe is still logical in that causality is relatively logical. We're just describing the universe as we see it.
