Psalm 79:1-7

Psalm 79:1-7
The Message (MSG)

  I know I've said this before, but it bears repeating--the Holy Scripture, inspired by God, gives us language we can use to question God!  God wants us to be involved and committed to this relationship, and in any relationship, you're going to have questions when you don't understand things.  Take those questions to God!  Don't be afraid of asking questions--how many times do the angels tell us not to be afraid?  Our questions show that we care.  Our questions show that we're paying attention, that we're committed to the relationship even though we don't understand it all.
  Now, we're called to ask those questions respectfully, to remember our place and remember who God is.  But ask questions.  Be inquisitive.  Trust that God has answers, even if we don't understand them.

May you trust God enough to ask your big questions
