Why It Is Important To Ask Tough Spiritual Questions

By Roger Powell


Many questions are difficult to answer, especially when they are deep and intense. This can relate to spiritual questions. Some people say that there are some things that you should just not ask, but you will find that it is important to think about certain things in life, especially if you have been through various experiences.

Many people start to ponder about life in general when they have had a bad experience, such as a childhood relating to abuse or neglect. They want to know where God was. This is only natural. Many people have been brought up with strong religious values, and are now breaking away after asking questions relating to what they see on the media. This is something that you can't get away from because it comes up on the news everyday. You may also be personally affected, which can be extremely tough to cope with.

Sometimes a lot of teenagers will struggle because they can have problems coping in different areas of their life. A lot of people have suffered from abuse or neglect in their life and this can create a big impact on their life. If they have not dealt with it as a child or an adult, they may be wondering about their spiritual life.

People who have been abandoned, will also wander why God has abandoned them. They may wander why someone else was well cared for and why God just rejected them. This is where it is important to talk to others who have a strong faith and those who have been through something like this. It is difficult to go through this on your own.

One of the most difficult questions to answer is when folks ask more about what is going on in the media. This is something that you witness everyday. There are a lot of wars in this day and age. There are many people getting killed for no reason. There is much crime. People want to know why God is letting this happening.

This has also happened to famous prophets and you can read about this in the good Book. You will find that your faith is tested in one way or another. You will also find that your faith will become stronger. Again, it does help if you talk about this and you keep on praying. It is important that you stay with others who are of the same faith.

Christmas time is also a time for everyone to be happy and merry. Many people believe that this is a spiritual time. However, spiritual people find that the meaning has been lost because of the materialism that you see at this time of the year. All you see at this time of the year are people opening presents.

The answer to this is to simply educate those who don't seem to know what Christmas is all about. Of course, some people do know, but they have just forgotten. Then there is the media that is responsible for this. One will be rewarded for reminding family and friends what the actual message is.
