Many of the questions that we ask God can't be answered directly, not because God doesn't know the answers but because our questions don't make sense. As C.S. Lewis once pointed out, many of our questions are, from God's point of view, rather like someone asking, "Is yellow round or square?" or "How many hours are there in a mile?".

I love this blog entry. It makes me glad that God listens and puts up with my babbling in prayer. He knows I don't know what I am talking about a lot of the time. That's why He suggests that I be still and rest in the knowledge that He is God, followed by the reminder that my only real purpose is to join the rest of creation in exalting Him. Be quiet and be amazed.
BRILLIANT!
