Does God Need to be Defended?

How often do we try to defend God and His workings around us?
We try to put Him in a box, within our understanding and make Him make sense to us.

Is He suppose to make sense to us? Are we, in our limited understanding of this awesome God suppose to understand everything or anything that He does?
How do we finite beings wrap our brains around an infinite God?
We who can't see anything past the present try way too hard to make sense of things that only the God of the universe; who sees past, present and future all at once, knows.

Now, what do I do with this?
Does it make me want to pray? Since God is going to do what He is going to do anyway.
Does it make me fearful? Like some unknown force is at work and I am just a pawn in it's play.
or
Do I find comfort in the fact that I don't have to have all the answers? I know that God knows, and that's enough.
Can I rest in the knowing that God wants what is best for me? This does not mean what I think is the best for me.
Do I know that God desires a relationship with me, and in that relationship comes conversation and listening, on both parts?
Do I trust this being I call God Almighty?
Do I serve Him as a slave, with the have too hanging over my head? Or do I serve Him as a servant, who has chosen to do as He asks?
