   "Of God we speak not all we ought (for that is known only to Him), but so   
   much as the capacity of human nature has received, and so much as our   
   weakness can bear. For we explain not what God is but candidly confess that   
   we have not exact knowledge concerning Him. For in what concerns God to   
   confess our ignorance is the best knowledge. Therefore 'magnify the Lord   
   with me, and let us exalt His Name together' (Ps. 34:3), - all of us in   
   common, for one alone is powerless; nay rather, even if we be all united   
   together, we shall yet not do it as we ought. Even if all the Church   
   throughout the world, both that which now is, and that which shall be,   
   should meet together, they would not be able to worthily sing the praises   
   of their Shepherd."   
      
   St. Cyril of Jerusalem.   
      
   "Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path."  Psalm 119:105   
      
   Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
