If it serves to bring you closer to God, anything goes.

I think it's alright to question God, to call God "on the carpet." I don't believe God to be so petty that God punishes such things. Richard | |||||

It is our nature to question as well as criticize. God's response to Job ultimately was, "what gives you the right to question me?" Of course, we have no right to question God, which does not mean that we never do. We need to pray more earnestly for the gift of faith that our questioning would not hamper our walk with God.

The first person I thought of was Job. Of course we need to be ready
for the answer God gives. We may not always like it!!

But then again, the Lord first thing the Lord requires is an honest heart. If your prayers and fellowship with the Lord aren't sincere and open then you will never receive what you need the most. There may be times when your attitude toward the Lord needs "adjusting". When this occurs (you'll know it), then you must repent of your attitude. Be honest, frank, sincere, respectful, and willing to repent and be obedient to Him. This is healthy. ace | |||||
