God as Mystery

Understanding God as mystery does not mean that God is incomprehensible. Rather, it means that God is infinitely comprehensible. Because He is an infinite being, it is impossible for us as finite beings to fully understand God--but we can understand each finite piece that He gives to us. This is why all of the metaphors He has put in creation for us to discover are so powerful; they express pieces of infinity! What better analogy to express His infinite nature than the never ending mystery of a person? What better analogy to express His never ending delight in us and desire for union with us than the marriage of a true man and true woman? Or the love a father and mother have for their children? He is constantly drawing us closer and deeper into His infinite nature, deeper into His eternal love.
