View God in terms of what you know as opposed to what you don't....makes sense. I think far too many of us get into thought modes where we begin to ask questions about God to which we know we have no answer (mainly because we have asked them before many times) and then get depressed when we can't figure it out this time as opposed to the other 3,000 times we tried.
Imagine if instead in the middle of it , instead of asking, "Why didn't God intervene here or intervene there?" we instead ask ," How many times today have I seen the beauty, wonder, magnificence, love and perfect rhythms of life that can only be explained as having come from God?"
I think many a philosophical debate would be swiftly ended, and in a better mood too, from heeding the quoted advice above.
