"God doesn't give the answers to everything"

Akira329:
I can't stand this statement!!
Is it me or does anybody else feel this way about it??
It makes me angry to believe that God, my Father will not give me
answers to the questions I ask!! If I don't know something about something
I wait for him to reveal it to me. The key word is WAIT!
It seems that those who are quick to repeat this statement
are content in their ignorance of somethings.
I know paul said be content in all things but I don't think his statement is
contradictory to seeking my father and knowing my father!
Am I wrong for feeling this way?? Is it justifiable anger???
I need help with this one. :-\
Thank you Guys

Hello Antaiwan,
If we had free will then I guess your feelings would be correct.
If you understand what Ray has pointed out and God has blessed you with," we can do nothing on our own."

You will get the answers you want only it will be in Gods time.
Searching is good to do, how many times have you read over things and understood them long after the first reading.

In Gods time.

Dear Ataiwan

I don't quite understand what you are angry with God for? Please don't get me wrong when I ask who should be the one to be angry, you with God or God with you?

I am a great grandfather, and if my children, grandchildren or great grandchildren didn't give me my due respect I would not answer them either. But here we are talking not about a mere earthly great grandfather but our Almighty Sovereign God over all creation. Give Him His respect and He will give you an answer: “ ‘A son honors his father, and a servant his master. Then if I am a father, where is My honor? And if I am a master, where is My respect?’ says the Lord of hosts to you, O priests who despise My name. But you say, ‘How have we despised Your name?’..." (Mal.1:6).

And your request also will be granted provided it is not for something frivolous: "What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members? You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures. You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: “He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us”? But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” (Jas. 4:1-6).

Don't be angry with God, my brother He is much too big for you, be angry with yourself.


God bless you brother in our joint walk in Christ. 

Love in Christ Jesus.

Ok it sounds to me like the last two people have completely misunderstood what the OP meant. You are not angry with God correct??? You are angry with people saying "well God just doesn't answer everything" and using that as an excuse to remain ignorant right?? If that's what you mean then, yes, I understand your frustration but try not to let it make you angry. You know that God will answer you in His perfect time and that's all that matters. We have to somewhat let go of the ones who can't see b/c we cannot make them see.

Yeah, either way if its us or them its still God directing the cause.
If such statments are made then its God who keeps them in the dark not us them or anyone else.



One of the two last people   ;D
