If you are allowed only one question
that you can ask
GOD~ what would it be? And what if
GOD
never answered you
in the way that you wanted HIM
to answer~
then would that really be a question or a test? Hmm.
Think about it.
Why do bad things happen to good people? Why don't YOU mend this relationship? Why did _______ have to suffer so much? Why am I depressed when I am following YOU? Where are YOU when I need YOU? Why did YOU even create apples when you knew Eve would eat one? BUT then GOD answers~ in a way that is so absurd for all to believe~
in a way HE
flunks your test ,
so you move on to another something or someone
to find the answers to the questions of life.
BUT
you still can't find the right answers.
Therefore you become more frustrated than before.
BUT then it happens because
GOD
never stops pursuing you~
even though
HE
doesn't have the exact answer that you think you want or need~
BUT BECAUSE
you are at your wits end
you look up & listen
with your whole heart & mind
&
everything starts to make sense
BUT
in an absurd way
because it is so simple that you want to complicate it~
JESUS! A NAME that is used so loosely. A NAME "that's too religious" for me. A NAME that is used for holidays twice a year. And yes,
if you think of
JESUS
as just a name then just a name
HE
is.
BUT
if you make
JESUS
the answer to all your questions
then just maybe you will have your answers. "JESUS answered them, 'Do you finally believe?
In fact, you’re about to make a run for it—saving your own skins and abandoning ME.
But I’m not abandoned. The FATHER is with ME. I’ve told you all this so that trusting ME,
you will be unshakable and assured, deeply at peace.
In this godless world you will continue to experience difficulties. But take heart! I'VE conquered the world.'” (John 16:33)
Therefore
Ask the ONE who is always
THE ANSWER
to all your questions
no matter what your question is
because
ISN'T HE (listen to the song below)
always the ANSWER~
