Isn't the human body amazing?
I was putting a pair of ear studs in, recently, when I suddenly realised that I was inserting a tiny little rod into a minute little hole somewhere, completely out of sight, behind my left ear! How can we even do that?
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." (Psalm.139)
All animals, in fact all life, is so beautiful, so complicated, so wonderful at every level from sub-microscopic upwards;  in all the thousands of years of our existence as thinking, questioning beings, we 'intelligent' humans have hardly even begun to understand its complexity. And if we go a step further and consider that we, with our entire world, are but one minute speck, one atom, in the entirety of the Universe, what does that make God?
"Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain."
"How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand ... "
Our own world, our own beings, even, are beyond our comprehension so how can we even begin to understand the mind of God? The more we question, the more we ask, the more we try to understand, the more we realise how very little we are in God's frame of reference.
Yet he loves me!
How can that be?
"Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
    too lofty for me to attain...."
With awe and wonder and love
