Let's start with this. I am dealing with God, the immensely complex Being. In fact, it would be safer to say that He is dealing with me. I have been learning about Him all my life, and I am finding that He is so complex that I may have been wrong about some things. Indeed He is so complex that perhaps 95% of all the things I post on this blog will turn out to be wrong.
But my goal is to not be satisfied with what I already know and understand. If there is one thing I have learned from Augustine it is that the element of wonder is important in my relationship with God. He must not be taken for granted, and we must not accept every trite answer we hear from a pulpit, pope, greeting card, or well-meaning friend.
