Questions

The source of all curiosity begins in the heart, it is the first to wonder at the world and all it beholds even at the costliest of prices. We may not know it but we ask more questions than we get answers on a daily basis with some questions taking years to answer. When something occurs that is beyond our understanding we ask a question in hopes that answer shall be forthcoming sooner rather than later. What we don't realize is that the answers we receive is determined by the timing and nature of our questions. Sadly as human beings we are the most impatient and confused of all god's wondrous creations, we assume that we are above and beyond all without understanding the truth behind our role on this planet.

In our ignorance we find that some of the most unfortunate of incidents are often repeated because we don't ask the required question to gain the answers we seek. We're so convinced that we have the answers to all our own problems that it often eludes the mind and the eyes that sometimes the answers to our problems are not within our reach but often require the influence of god in order to be obtained. Mankind must understand that the knowledge we seek is useless once we do not fully comprehend the full uses of the answers we acquire, a perfect example is the use of food, for years it has been confined to consumption by the flesh and now it is being experimented for machine consumption. It has taken man more than a century since the invention of the automobile to gain the finite knowledge that we now possess. Had we turned to the only source of infinite wisdom we have available through god this problem would have been overcome many years sooner, and who knows the problems we're experiencing with global warming may not have existed.

The simple fact of the matter is that man is unable to solve his own problems, if this were not true then we wouldn't be in half the messes of life we encounter multiple times now would we? Therefore pride and arrogance must be put aside so that we may be able to ask the appropriate questions at the appropriate time. Only when these are done will we be able to learn and grow in faith and spirit.
