  1. Have you ever had a question for God that felt too bold to say out loud?

  2. Maybe it was about injustice or suffering.

  3. Sometimes we assume faith means certainty, but scripture shows us something different.

  4. Psalm 10 begins with an honest question.

  5. Why, Lord, do you stand far off?

  6. Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

  7. The psalmist does not hide his confusion.

  8. He brings it directly to God.

  9. Today, we are going to remember that God is not threatened by our questions.

  10. He invites them.

  11. Take a moment to quiet your heart and become aware of his presence with you.

  12. Thank God that he is near, even when you do not fully understand what he is doing.

  13. Praise him that he welcomes honesty, not perfection.

  14. I choose to trust you even when I do not see the whole picture.

  15. Thank you for listening to me.

  16. Amen.
