Do you ever think about what questions you would ask God if given the chance? Questions about your future, your present day, or how the world works? I asked 29 people, a mixture of guys and girls ranging in age from 17-23, if given the chance, what one question they would want to ask God. This is what they said.

1. "How did you create everything in the universe?"

Male, 22

2. "How are you so patient with us when we are slow to learn things sometimes?"

Female, 23

3. "Do we all see the same colors?"

Male, 17

4. "Why can't everyone focus on loving each other?"

Female, 20

5. "Why did you let my mom marry such a jerk?"

Male, 18

6. "Am I physically, relationally, and goal-wise where I'm supposed to be?"

Female, 19

7. "How do people age in Heaven?"

Male, 20

8. "Are fire ants really neccessary?"

Female, 21

9. "Why are some people 'predestined' and some aren't?"

Male, 22

10. "Why do some people claim to be Christians but then deliveratly sin knowing that judgement day is coming?"

Female, 19

11. "Why can life be difficult sometimes?"

Male, 18

12. "How do you choose the people who have to suffer in order to show your greatness to others?"

Female, 18

13. "Why do bad things happen to good people?"

Male, 20

14. "Am I living in your will and plans for my life right now, and if not, what should I do?"

Female, 19

15. "Everyone says french horn is 'God's instrument', but what is actually your instrument?"

Male, 22

16. "When will I meet my future husband?"

Female, 20

17. "Are there more humans out there?"

Male, 22

18. "Why do I have depression/anxiety and how can I stop having it?"

Female, 19

19. "What does Chick-fil-A use to make their chicken taste so heavenly?"

Male, 20

20. "What is heaven really like?"

Female, 20

21. "Why did you make insects that sting?"

Female, 18

22. "What is love?"

Female, 19

23. "Why do good things happen to people who do awful things?"

Female, 20

24. "Are there people on earth now who can actually see angels?"

Female, 20

25. "Can I have more than one question?"

Male, 22

26. "How can I do my part?"

Female, 18

27. "What will my future look like in five years?"

Female, 19

28. "Where did Jesus get His DNA from?"

Female, 20

29. "How much longer until you're coming back?"

Female, 22

As you can see, some people have a deep personal matter they want to get to the bottom of, while others are simply curious as to how the world works. I hope if you're reading this that you realize you are not alone in your questions, and someone out there is probably wondering the same thing. So ask away, because I know God would love to hear your questions (and he just might give you some answers).

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
