Questions

Years ago, Lori and I were taking our son back to college when, on the way, the traffic came to a sudden halt. After a time of stop-and-go, state troopers directed us off the highway onto the side road, where we drove for several miles. We knew that an accident had occurred on the main road, and it must have been a bad one. It was. A teenage girl, an outstanding athlete in our area, had been killed in a car crash. I am sure her family misses her every day.

Our passage today is an answer to a question ... actually, two questions. So let’s check them out.

If you must know the answer to every question about life and God before trusting in him, guess what? You will never trust in him. One thing we do know about the future is that death is certain. Here’s the main question. When your body has breathed its final breath, where will your soul go?

Can you trust him…even standing in the whirlwind of your questions?

In whom or what do you trust? In whom or what do you place your confidence?

Even in my most vulnerable time—when I lie down to sleep—God provides sweet confidence.

He loves you! He cares for you! You can trust him!

God knows you intimately and loves you deeply.

Even amidst my fears, doubts, and questions, He will always keep His promises.
