If the Source is as they say, It is then of course it is beyond understanding. I am not saying do not have faith in the Creator you have chosen, what I am saying is if you must have faith have faith in the purpose. It is like when you are a baby and your parents first tell you NO and you begin your journey into a fuller understanding of the world around you. You don't currently have the ability to think or guess the motives of your parents but you love them, trust them and even though they may upset you in various ways you believe in their love.
We are born without asking, we live because it is good to be alive, we die as we are born without choice. Motivation, Purpose these are things you must find.Life without meaning is just drifting.
I was a child without faith in the higher powers, I believed in love, I still really only have faith in and believe in Love.
thats a good metaphor, we have projected into god(s) everything we expect from a parent, and just like children the more we learn the more we step away from our parents. in the end we no longer really on them but we take comfort in always knowing they are there to offer love and support.


Hope
