Why doesn't God prove Himself to me?

Why didn't God make something to rhyme with "orange"?

And why does He make hair grow out of old men's ears?

Why did God create our souls to be eternal?

Why does God want us to praise Him, 

How can God be perfect and Holy and still love and forgive us?

Why does God choose some, and not others?

Confession of sin.

So we are reminded of our dependency on Him...also He chooses to work through human agency.

He has....in His Word.

Hi town!

Great answers!

The great mega asked for common questions, I don't know that many that are suggesting questions are necessarily looking for them to be answered in this thread, though I guess it's up to mega if he wants us to follow up.

Why don't you invent a synonym for orange, that rhymes with other words?

Perhaps a word like "floopid", as in: "Do your prefer Navel floobids or Valencia floopids?" Then poets and song writers and limeric witerscan get busy, using words like Cupid, putrid, and stupid!

The ear hair question, is the wrong question. Ear hair helps to prevent insects form intering one's ears, while still allowing hearing. I think it is superior to ear wax, since it is less messy. Of course, ear canals could have an adhesive like fly paper, but then people would look funny when there fingers get stuck i their ears. So, ear hair is practical. Ear hair might be evidence of inteligent design. Not only is it functional, but it seems to be easier to maintain, than beards and mustaches, leg, scalp and armpit hair. There are even cutters designed for nose hair, but not a lot of market for ear hair products. So, the question is not: "Why do old men get ear hair?" The better question is: "Why does God only bless some people with it?"

You can see, from my last post, that I have decided to get silly. There is a reason for this.

Those of you who have answered the question with sincerity and thought, have done all that I asked of you, and have done it well. I think you! You have given me enough examples, for me to use, and therefore, I will be moving on from monitoring this thread with regularity.

I turn it over to your direction, so if people chose to ask these "Why" questions and attemp to provide reasonable answers, or to provide help to those who want ideas how to respond to sush questions, have at it!

My request for help, is answers, and now feel free to make a discussion thread of it, or allow it to die, as you see fit.

Thanks again!

The "great mega"? Don't thing I know him. Thanks hmbld, you made a lot of good responses, that are helpful, above and beyond the call of duty. As I just recently pointed out, I got what I needed and sure, feel free to ask questions, respond and discuss, etc.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
