Questions

Day 2
Sitting in an education philosophy class today, I was bombarded with many thought-provoking questions that really made me think about "why" we do what we do in education.  I won't go into detail because it would take up a lot of space.  I also was prompted to ask what the difference was between God's definition of "good" and our definition of "good". We call God good but are we simply limiting Him to a list of attributes that we consider "good"?  Think about it.  Write down a quick list of attributes that you would consider "good".  Does God's nature line up with all of those words?  Think of His commands in the Old Testament to leaders to wipe out entire nations in His name.  Would you consider those acts "good"?
Questions not only keep us thinking on our toes about deep, theological issues but they also are part of accountability and knowledge.  How else do we keep each other in check on certain things besides creeping on them all the time?  Just kidding.  We ask them questions about their day, what they've done, their thoughts, etc.  We also gain knowledge when we ask questions.  How would we know about what's going on in the government and life in general if we didn't ask questions.  "I wonder what's going on with the economy today?" You wouldn't have to look far for that answer but it was the wondering and the question that brought that seeking-out to action.  Here's an idea.  Count how many times you ask questions throughout the day, including the ones you ask silently.
God, you created us as curious beings, always searching and discovering new ideas and facts.  Thank you for giving us the capability to think on things and to articulate our curiosity in the form of questions.  We definitely will never know everything in a lifetime.  That is reserved for Your knowledge and omniscience.  Thank you for being all-knowing and for allowing us the brainpower to mentally and physically pursue the answers to our questions.
