Oh, what a wonderful God we have! How great are his riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his methods! For who can know what the Lord is thinking? Who knows enough to be his counselor? And who could ever give him so much that he would have to pay him back? For everything comes from him; everything exists by his power and is intended for his glory. To him be glory evermore. Amen. (Romans 11:33-36)(NLT)
God made us in his image. We would be gravely mistaken, however, to assume that this allows us to understand the mysteries of his eternal being. God has infinitely more knowledge than the total sum of human learning. His decisions are more intelligent, more certain, more wise than those of any human being. Like Paul, we can only marvel at the greatness of our God and give thanks that he has chosen to reveal himself to us through his Word.
ETERNAL GOD, when we think about your attributes, we are filled with awe. Your infinite wisdom can never be fully understood. You have existed from the beginning of time, and you will remain when heaven and earth are no longer. We praise your name for you are great. Amen.
