Why?? Why?? Why??

From an early age we learn to ask why. I believe part of it is curiosity and the desire to learn and the other part of it is a direct challenge to authority. We tell a child to do something often the quickly fire back a loud "why." When something happens that frustrates us or that we do not understand we say it, "why." Where things really become difficult is when we ask "why" and do not receive a satisfactory answer. Often we think in the back of our minds that God is somehow offended by us asking "why" or that it shows a lack of faith. I believe the exact opposite that God welcomes us asking "why" because it shows that we are open to Him teaching us. I believe asking "why" is a part of the growth of our faith. "Why" causes us to investigate and to search for answers and opens the door for learning and growth. Remember God is our Heavenly Father and He desires His children to learn and grow. Yes, asking "why" is part of that process.
