Be Content To Be Ignorant

"..I don't concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp."
Psalm 131:1

God's providences to us are astounding, and stupendous are His exertion of love, grace and redemption. But there are things that we know nothing about and things that exceed our knowledge (Job 42:3). Those are purposefully hidden for us by God. Let us therefore be content to be ignorant of things not clearly revealed to us. Certain positions that seem great to us may be unfit for us. Let us not seek to attain higher statures unless until the Lord takes us onto it. Let us be humble enough to agree that we cannot handle everything and be cautious not to pronounce our opinion on things out of our reach.
