Thankfully, God announced His own Name!

And Moses said unto God, Behold, [when] I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What [is] his name? what shall I say unto them?

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. - Exodus 3:13-14

No matter what question enters my mind, His Name is the answer.

[ And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: ]

The way I read that is “its none your business WHO I AM”...
Paraphrasing; “go tell them, he is what/who he is”.. thats who he is..

Pagan religions NEED a God with a name.. they need a name for their IDOL..
A real God don’t seem to need one.. I like that... I don’t have an IDOL..

That is if a human could remotely grasp or understand what God “IS” anyway..
I don’t think they(you, me, anybody) can.. I sure can’t..

I accept God on his own terms.. whatever they are..
Sure.. I have more faith than good sense.. its true..
Its taken a long time for me to get this dumb...
