Questioning God?

I had breakfast with friends this morning as I do on most Friday mornings. We were discussing the "correctness" of questioning God.

I went to lunch with a co-worker. "Amazingly" we were discussing the same topic. My co-worker expressed "I know it is wrong to question God but . . . "

I believe that questioning God is a form of communication with God. Communication is essential for any healthy relationship.

My conclusion, it is important to question God, to dialogue with God, to express your heart to God. If you don't admit you have questions for God when such questions are on your heart, you are trying to "hide" them from God. Trying to hide things in a relationship does not help a relationship grow, it drains a relationship. If you try to hide your questions from God, you lose integrity.
