The clay has no right to question the Potter, but I need to know if I'm so horrible, utterly wretched. I never got an answer but I feel God's love. His grace sustains me. Amen.

He may not answer, for various reasons of His own. Silence does not mean you have done anything wrong to ask. The Psalms are full of questions for God, often the writer is in anguish. I recommend you re-read some of them. Peace and blessings to you. Thanks for reminding me about this, I will work on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remember that His will and knowledge and purposes are always good and right, so not getting a clear answer, or the answer you want, should not lead you to doubting him. Ask him to give you the clarity, insight, and knowledge that you need to understand his will, and to give you the strength and faith to trust him until he chooses to give you that clarity, insight, and knowledge, and then glorify him and praise him when he does.

However, that doesn't mean we would understand the answer. A first grader doesn't understand long division, and there are spiritual issues we don't understand, yet.

Not every answer comes through scripture or verbally, sometimes is comes from other means when you follow His way. Amen, thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is aware of it already. And I believe God desires openness and honesty, which all healthy relationships are based on. The others here have all answered well though, and I won't parrot too much further. Amen, thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew 6: 8 “Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. 9 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. 13 And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.
