Romans 11:33-36 CSB

Oh, 

the depth of the riches and the wisdom and the knowledge of God! 

How unsearchable his judgments and untraceable his ways

For who has known the mind of the Lord? 

Or who has been his counselor? 

And who has ever given to God, that he should be repaid? 

For from him and through him and to him are all things. 

To him be the glory forever. 

Amen.

Romans 11:33-36 CSB

Paul has been wrestling in this letter with being Jewish, God's chosen people, who have also rejected Jesus, and how out of that faith has come to Gentiles, the rest of us who aren't Jewish- and this is his conclusion to all that:

How great our God is.

We can't expect to figure Him out completely, we can't outgive Him, counsel Him, or fully know Him.

And that's OK.

We get to sit with mystery, uncertainty, doubt, not knowing, and being able to hold to what is known, what is True, that it's our God who made the way for us to be right with Him, and we are in fact, dearly loved.
