THE ANSWER

Any time I think of this I am reminded of the movie, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I truly enjoy the way the movie approaches the idea of wisdom.

It has such merit indirectly of pointing out how not everything is as it seems and not all knowledge is what we think it will be. Plus how computers don't always solve our problems.

I think the nature of life is such that it normally leaves us with questions. There are so many things that never make any sense.

That is why some reach out for finding answers to all the problems in life. To help forced the world into a small corridor of answers.

And when you are doing that with the Bible it can really be obvious that it doesn't work that well. The Bible is from my view the revealed word of God.

I feel it is truth. But I also appreciate that it is not an answer book to every problem in life.

And because it does leave questions at times, the effort some make to keep life as black and white never truly works. It just means you leave out facts that disagree with your interpretation.

Some deal with this problem by pretending their is no God. There solution is just as bias as the people they complain about.

This is never an improvement. And often causes more problems than it solves. Which only complicates the problem.

It is sad when so many in life abandon the foundations of faith because you can't get perfect answers to all problems. And they will blame god for this fact.

Faith to me is not about having all your questions answered in this life. That is our view of faith.

We are given a core of revelation, which gives us a glimpse at eternity. Enough to let faith endure.

Providing we are willing to accept that has truth without being snared in the process by out doubts. It is a common problem.

For some of us, we just keep plotting away even with those issue. We don't give up on God's reality just because some things in life don't make sense.

And that is a path that brings more peace than ignoring the Lord.
