Have you ever been around a small toddler that has a MILLION questions? And not just a question or two here or there, but all day long you get asked the question "Why?" No matter how you answer the question, there is always a "why" that proceeds out of that little mouth. They want to know everything! If you haven't experience a conversation such as, then God is sparing you from lots of border-line patience and frustration. If you have been a victim from the mini-culprits, you may have a deeper understand of how the Lord feels when He is bogged down with all the questions we pose for Him about every circumstance in our lives. Lord, why did you let that happen? Why don't I have a bigger house? Why haven't you allowed the "one" to come into my life? Why did you make me go through that? Why are my family members sick? Why do I only have two children? Why do I have this disease? Why don't I have more money? Why did my husband loose his job? Why cant I get a job? Why? Why? Why? Why? Instead of asking God SO many questions about everything that is going on in your life, trust that He knows what He is doing. He is working out all things for our good. Is it wrong to ask Him questions, NO! However, questioning God is displaying very little faith. If we trusted that every decision that He decides to make for our life is for our good, then we wouldn't be so inquisitive all the time.
Lets try to avoid giving God looks like these and trust that He is in total control of our life. Hes making the BEST decisions for you right now. Think of it this way....if we could see the big picture like He does, we would make the same choices for ourselves. But since we cant and only HE can, we seem to think we know the best decisions for our current place in life. God looks at the big picture of each of our lives, and His orchestrates our paths according to what will benefit us in the big picture. Our ways are NOT his. So lets trust that He knows whats BEST. We all want and desire the best, so why not just move out of the way, let Him work, so we can receive it.
