Why have we been created as a human who question? Well the QUESTION IS... what are our questions.... they must be on a QUEST to be beneficial. If we are only questioning to stir up and cause dumb founded looks on people's faces...then you are causing a stumbling block in the road.
Now that I have said that... NOW I say to STIR THINGS UP. Stir up the spirit with questions ...questions on one particular QUEST ...the quest of growing closer to the one who created everything. Yes, being on a quest for truth is very important... but after you have truth...what then? It can only be left to say that in the end the truth sets you free...and what is that thing that you are free to do? To have a RELATIONSHIP with the ONE who created you.
Questions are good, but be WISE in what you ask.
Stir Up the Spirit, but conclude with PEACE
challenge the mind, but make its very foundation LOVE
hold accountable your brother in Christ, but do it with GRACE
Here is a new challenge for you and for me:
CALL UPON THE LORD with ALL your Questions FIRST
"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind." James 1:5-6

To be wrong...
To be wrong
oh how I long
to be right
so I will put up a fight.
but why do I fight
why?
why do I torture myself with
this myth
that pride is good
and that I should
only look out for number one ... me?
the longer I fight
the longer it hurts
it hurts to be wrong...
But wait..
what is my fate?
is it to late
to be forgiven?
No
and in forgiveness lies hope
and hope gives peace
yes I said peace
not war, not in this heart
I will have no part
because I have found
the sound
of RIGHT
It is right to forgive
it is right to confess
and the wrong will feel right again
and be blessed.
So to be wrong is okay
I do say
I say yes it is because
forgivenss is beautiful
and peace comes after.
