Opus 2024-272: Questions Welcomed

I just got through writing about God and feelings, specifically his feelings.  I wondered if I had crossed over into heresy.  That brought to mind another thought.  I think God enjoys our asking difficult questions.

Some people are afraid to ask questions.  Some people quake at the idea of having a contrary opinion.  It’s not that way with God.  He is very secure in who He is, and created us to be curious and creative ourselves, a reflection of Him.

I think God really enjoys when we ask genuine, sincere questions.  They don’t even need to be well thought out.  It could be just shooting from the hip, or off the shelf, or off the top of our head.  I think God loves it, that we are free to interact with Him.

If I am wrong you might want to invest in a lightening rod.

    1. I find that my understanding grows better when I have discussions with people who disagree with me. Part of that is being forced to answer hard questions.

      Grace and peace
