Psalms 22:1

The constant questions are starting to make me lose it.

 

Yes, they’re little. 

Yes, they’re learning. 

Yes, I love them.

 

But I can only answer so many questions about nothing.

 

If you know what I’m talking about, chances are you’ve had a 2 year old in quarantine before.

 

They can’t help it. They HAVE to ask.

 

Have you ever had a question you just HAD to ask?

 

Not like an information question that you could Google, but like a question about the depth of real life? 

 

What is my purpose?

 

Why do good people have to die?

 

Why would a good God let this bad happen?

 

You can’t google those, and chances are your mom and dad don’t know either.

 

Where do you go with these questions? Are you scared to find the answers?

 

For me, when these questions come up in my own mind, I often feel like I’m letting God down by even asking them. How could I doubt the God that has carried me through rough times? 

 

Here’s the amazing thing, that’s not how God feels. He isn’t scared or annoyed or surprised by our questions. In fact, he welcomes them – all of them. 

 

That’s why in Psalm 22:1 David (and Jesus on the cross) was able to say:

 

“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

    Why are you so far from saving me,

    so far from my cries of anguish?”

 

Through the Psalms, David had a myriad of questions for God. David wanted to know the true heart of God, so he asked.

 

Question:
What question(s) have you been too scared to ask God? 

P.S. It’s ok he can take it.
