One Question Only

What would you do with one chance?

Imagine, if you will, you have been given one opportunity to be face to face with God Almighty. No, I don’t mean it in the event of the death of your flesh - I mean while you still walk among us.

Now, I don’t want you to be rash and quick about this one readers. But I do want you to sit down, all alone, and give it at least fifteen minutes of your time. What would you ask God if you only had one question that you could ask?

I know it’s a tough one folks. Been racking my brain for the last thirty minutes and I’ve yet to come up with just one question.

Should I ask why?

Why He would allow so many to endure so much pain and suffering -

Should I ask when?

When He will return to end all of this madness we call life -

Should I ask how?

How can we carry on when at times all we want is to end it all -

Or how about asking Him for a preview; a preview of what lies ahead for us after our flesh has died. Where is heaven located? Does everyone get to go, no matter how evil they have lived their lives, if they confess to Him and ask forgiveness on their very death beds?

What about how He allows the smallest of angels born, to suffer such horrific illnesses and disfigurements.

How does God chose who parents to send us to? I mean, is there a special line some get into with the ‘good’ parents; while the rest of us seemed to miss that line or something? What makes Him decide such of each and every single infant sent from Heaven?

How is it some houses during a horrific tornado are completely untouched, whiles others are completely destroyed? Amazing things!

When does He decide that some of us will live in poverty, and others will be blessed beyond measure? Again, is there a lottery going on or what?

How does the human body continue to live, even when it feels like it just wants to die? We can’t will ourselves to death, why?

How about, did Judas really betray Jesus Christ, or was he only trying to usher in the Kingdom of God that much sooner?

Who invented suicide bombs? And more importantly, why?

Why is it, that people aren’t treated the way they treat others? I see so many evil ones who treat others horribly, yet are so blessed in so many areas of their lives. Then there’s the other side of the coin; where I’ve seen some treat people so good, and suffer so much. It just seems really unbalanced and unfair most times God.

How did you come up with snowflakes God?

If the Ark of Covenant is still here on earth God, would we die if we tried to touch it?

Do You leave nations that don’t believe in You God? I’ve always wondered what’s going on in places like India and Africa.

Have you forgiven those who survived Hitler when they said they had lost their faith completely because they just couldn’t comprehend why You didn’t step in and save 6 million people who died so horribly?

Will You forgive me God for all of my sins and welcome me into Your arms when my flesh dies?

You can see, dear ones, there is far too many questions to ask of God. Too many to be able to bring it down to just one. Can’t be done. I seem to have more questions than I have answers.

If I were face to face with God this very moment, I think I would simply collapse to His feet, and ask Him if I could just rest beneath His wings for all eternity. I guess if I could do that, then not much else is likely to matter to me, right?

What indeed would you ask God if you had one chance, one question? Think about it…

Dear, Lord God. If it is your will, and not mine, please cure me from my schizophrenia. In Jesus almighty name I pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.
