Amateurs in knowing God

Lest we become too carried away with loving ourselves, here's a healthy dose of humility from Bob at Gratitude and Hoopla:

Did you know that we Christians are not God-experts? I think it's good to remind ourselves of that from time to time. The Gospel is a wondrous thing, and it truly is a key to understanding the God of all creation, but even to speak of "understanding God" is to venture the slippery slope of pride. You'll remember how God put an end to all that sort of talk in the case of Job and his friends. He addressed them with 62 pertinent questions that they couldn't answer. One gets the impression that he might have gone on asking questions like that forever. Thankfully, Job got the message after #62.

And, as Bob goes on to explain, we're not love or Word-of-God experts, either.
