Questioning God....

[Walkerbyfaith]

Does anyone feel closer to God when we question Him? Not in the rude doubting way, but the questions that when answered lead to more questions, that make God so mysterious, and makes, me at least, want to follow Him all the more?


For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son..... why did He give his only son? Because He loves the world. Why does he love the world? Because God is love! Does that mean God loves everyone? How far does God's love extend?

These questions, though I know the answer to these few here, are what drive me to want to know God more! Not these particular few in general, but the questions I have throughout the Bible!

Does anyone else feel this way?

Was just thinking today, "Lord I do not understand your love and grace."
He said "Trust me."

[Walkerbyfaith]

Yea I know He is so mysterious, It just makes me want to know him more!

[SisterNChrist]

Yes, I too, want to know God more. I especially would to ask Him where did He originally come from, and did He like us have parents.:confused :):

Just like that famous child question: mommy God made everything but Who Made God? :laugh

God always been and forever still.

Psalm 90:2
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

[Leuretha]

Matthew 11:29
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me;
for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.


The questions are a natural part of what we do when we follow Him. So as I spend time with Him the questions come and then the answers. I love it! He is to wonderful for words! My heart wants to burst open and my body can not contain the WONDER of Him, but some day I will and I will know Him fully. Oh what a day that will be! :clap :clap :clap

Matthew 11:25-30

25. At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee,
O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast
hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
26. Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
27. All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son,
but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and [he]
to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him].
28. Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30. For my yoke [is] easy, and my burden is light. KJV

Does anyone else feel this way?Yes. Some seem either afraid of questioning or just uncomfortable. I used to think something was wrong with them. I now think, it just isn't their walk. It is mine though I think. God wired me in a certain way. :noidea I like to ask why. Sometimes I don't get an answer. Most times I do.

...and you know what. In the past, and I suppose even of late. I have been accused of causing doubt in others. For a long time I thought through my own eyes and my own walk. Really, just tonight I am seeing that I need to be more sensitive to others walk. Don't know how really. :sigh Will be a learning process and require more :tape for me I think.

:sigh

:)

[frisian1970]

And greater wisdom.

But, that folks is my two cents.
