Waiting Room: Questions and Answers

Have you ever been asked a question that the answer was completely obvious or the question was so stupid it did not deserve an answer? Well, i think God gets a lot of these questions.. especially from me. Now i am not trying to say all questions we ask God are stupid and i am defiantly not saying that God gives stupid answers back. That my friends is not true and that is just asking for a lightning bolt to my face. I do think at times we grow impatient with God if he does not answer our questions right away. We conjure up our own answers if we do not get one quick enough by our own standards. However, in my 24 years of existence i have found out this. A lot of the questions we ask God are easily answered the minute we ask them. We sometimes, including me don't like the answer so we make up our own. If we cannot be patient with God and except his answer then we as a people lack a lot of christian maturity. Sometimes we all need to grow up, its tough sometimes.. trust me i would know. I know its hard sometimes when you are going through a crisis or a tough week. Sometimes God just needs to sit on it for a while too. He wants to give us the best answer! so we better not rush him! I would pray for patience because sometimes we need a lot more than we think.

Much love, Stephen
