We are Not God, God is God

Most of our problems with God have to do with our deep-seated belief that we know what is best and he does not. Or, we believe that we are more God than he is. This sort of uni-perspectival approach to things is obstusley individualistic and arrogant. But this is also the root of all sin. When Eve took the fruit she was saying with her whole being that God was not God. But had she actually believed that God was God, it would not have mattered to her had the restriction seemed wrong. Once you begin to believe that God is truly God (that he is omniscient and perfectly good), you subvert the festering belief that you really know what is best. Or, we'll go from saying "This just can't be the way God is" to "Why in the world would I trust myself to know what is best?" Or, as Paul said it, "Has the potter no right over the clay...?"
