Default if u were to ask God just 1 question

ok if u were to ask God just 1 question, what would it be and why? Well there are lots we often ask, but just 1. Or we might know God's answer, yet we still ask!...

share....

The premise in the original post is to ask God one question...

Are we, as His children, in any type of position to even consider questioning God?

We here on earth are not of perfection... we are all sinners and even those who repent and TRULY mean it from the heart will slip up and sin again.

God IS perfection and His WILL is what will be done here on earth. Scripture tells us that we will never have burdens on our shoulders that everyone else has not already experienced. And God will always give us a way out of those burdens.

1 Corinthians 10:13 (KJV) tells us, "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."

Once we understand this and have FAITH in Our Father, we accept our earthly trials and do not question He who watches over us. To question God at all is to question our Faith.

Might seem silly, but I would probably just ask what his favorite flavor of ice cream is or something. Any of the really big questions either have already been answered, or we are not meant to know them.

I would ask Him if it was true that He favored Nascar over all other sports.

Theres a differance between asking God a question and questioning God. We are just speculating, making conversation and getting to know one another. I don't believe that is a bad thing.
I understand that some might see this as in some way a lack reverance for God and if so I for one would delete mine rather than offend.


Sincerely
Cliff

i agree with cliff,

while it is true that we should not question God, there are really times in our lives that we do this., and just like David and other man in the bible they were just being honest and i think God would honor that. But there's of course a limitation in it.
