I look at it this way.

God is the universe and the universe is God.

He exists everywhere, everywhen, everyhow even in the dimensions we cannot percieve.

God knows everything, down to the tiny iota of matter/energy intimately.

Human understanding is limited to what we can percieve and concieve.

We have as much ability to truly understand God as an ant has of understanding New York City. Yes the ant can guess people are working (which he can relate to) but not all the ants in all the world in all of time could ever concieve of the political, economical, social, etc., etc. realities of New York.

Nor can all of mankind in the history of mankind ever truly grasp the enormity of what God is. You cannot fully percieve him, our level of perception is very limited. Nor can our brains fully concieve him, it's just too small.

But you can get to know Him. That's the beauty of it all.
