Romans 11:33 - "Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!"
1 Corinthians 13:12 - "Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known."
It is very easy to forget that we are the creation and that we have a very limited perspective from which to base our knowledge on. We only see a mere glimpse of God's creation and we know even less of His plan.
Our thoughts are monolithic and skewed by so many biases that are placed upon our understanding by culture, geographic location, environmental factors, upbringing and our place in history. These are just a few factors and there are many more that shape our world view.
While we cannot fully understand God or even really begin to understand God, there is a way that we can be close to Him.
Jesus said in John 15:15 - "I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything
