The Catholic Faith is referred to as a Faith of Mystery.
In the world we live in now, there are no more mysteries. Anything that we do not know about,
we just Google it, and then we find out.
In the Creed we professe to "believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible."
Since Jesus's Kingdom is not of this world, in order to try and find it
we have to work in a way that is in contradiction to how things normally work.
It takes time, attention, patience and perseverance to come to uncover a bit of the Mystery;
but the little bit will be enough to motivate us to go on, however we will never "know it all".
Curiosity can also be a good motivator in this work.
Curiosity about who we are;
Psalm 8:4-8:
"What is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You visit him?
And the son of man that You visit him?
For You have made him a little lower than the angels,
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet,
You have put all things under his feet,
All sheep and oxen—
Even the beasts of the field,
Even the beasts of the field,
The birds of the air,
And the fish of the sea
That pass through the paths of the seas."
And the fish of the sea
That pass through the paths of the seas."
