My Questions For God

I Wanna Know Some Things...

My Questions For God
Tyler Powell

There are many questions that I plan on asking God when I get up to Heaven. There are the typical, more serious and deep ones that everyone wants to know, like why does God let bad things happen to people who try and live their lives for Him? And why are some people born into terrible situations? Of course, once we get up there everything will probably make sense immediately. But there are some personal questions that I really would like the answer to...

Bugs...Why???????????

This is my main question. Bugs just annoy me and scare me to no end. I can't enjoy a nice picnic or walk outside because there are always bugs trying to land on me and bite me. Their creepy little legs creep me out to no end. ARE THEY REALLY NECESSARY? COULDN'T YOU HAVE MADE THEM LESS ANNOYING/AFRAID OF HUMANS/JUST NOT EXIST AT ALL???? All of Your creation is beautiful in some way, Lord, but I could really do without these...

Why Don't You Show More Clear Signs?

I know trying to figure out Your will for my life probably builds my character and faith...but it would really be nice if you could just clearly spell out for me what Your will is and where you want me to go. What major should I pick? What career do you want me in? Who do you want me to marry? Should I eat this chocolate cake or lay off the sweets for a while? Life would be so much easier if You would clearly tell me what You want. But then again, mystery keeps life interesting, and keeps me seeking You. So in a way, I am grateful, even if I get stressed out about this a lot.

Are You Okay With Tattoos? And How About Screamo Music? And Playing Violent Video Games?

Thoseare legit questions, and every Christian seems to have a different opinion on them. I have my own opinions, but sometimes I question if my opinions are ones that line up with Your Word and Your ways. I mean I'm sure once I get up to Heaven, the answers to these questions won't matter anymore, but you never know. If You could answer them now that would be even better.

Can You Show Me All The Times In Life Where You Saved Me From Harm?

Of course You can! You're God! But will You? I'm just interested in seeing all the times when I thought things were going wrong, but it was really just You pointing me in the right direction. I'm sure I also fail to recognize most of the times when You caused something good to happen for me. For now, I'll just thank You for those times, even if I don't know what they are. Hopefully when I get to Heaven, by Your grace and mercy, I'll be able to see those times and laugh with You.

There are a variety of things I'd like to ask God. Some serious, some not so much. I'm not sure exactly what Heaven will be like, but just in case we're able to ask questions, I'll keep adding to my list, and maybe God will answer them while I'm here on Earth.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. 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.
