mystery of mysteries! i am so glad that God is beyond my understanding. the depths of His wisdom, knowledge & creativity are so far beyond me that i don’t have any hope of unraveling Him or His thoughts. and that is a very good thing. what kind of God would He be if we could probe the depths of His heart & mind? who wants the Almighty to be a quick-glance-and-know type? not me, that’s for sure.

so, all praise to God for being the mystery that He is. Three cheers for the ineffable depths of God! hooray for wisdom & knowledge & power that is out of my reach! hallelujah to the Creator that is greater than all of us (and everything) He designed!

how deep is His wisdom, how wide is His love. how high is the knowledge and thought of the Lord my God!

i am not scared of science. i absolutely love when we discover new things about what God has created. i still get cheesed off at the church for what we did to people like Galileo for pointing out the truth of God in creation (things like our not being the center of the universe…how arrogant!) whatever we can discover about Him in truth, and with true objectivity, will always point us back to Him. there is no explanation other than His handiwork, and interacting with Creation, to explain what we find in the universe that surrounds us.

any presuppositions of our own superiority will be squashed when we continue to look deeper into what He has made…and that makes me very happy. i am glad to be a small part with a very specific task to perform. praise God!
