Live the Question

"Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked room and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers... At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiences the answer, some distant day."

- Rainer Rilke

Are You Asking The Right Questions?

"In my mind there are two ways to ask this question. One way is a fear-controlled response to an unpleasant situation like, "GOD, WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" The other way is with the child like characteristic of asking, "God, what are you doing?" Just as parents encourage their children to ask questions, so also God encourages us in the same manner. Jesus himself said, "Anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a child will never enter it." Does that include child like questions as well? I believe it does, for the Father invites questions that lead to a greater understanding of His will for us."

Questions That Have Answers

"You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers."

- John J. Plomp
