If God has the answer to every question, maybe my appreciation for God should be shaped more by the number of questions and less by the wisdom of the answers.

About This Quote

This quote speaks to the power of questions. They can inspire us to new actions and actions that lead to new results. Sometimes, the answers are more powerful than the questions. Asking God for an answer often forces us to see our prayer as an inquiry rather than a command.

When we ask God for wisdom, we may be expecting God to give us answers without any sense of humility. It is almost as if we are measuring our own savoir faire against God’s. That’s not how things are supposed to work, though.

Wisdom is the fruit of the Spirit, which savoir faire is not. We are expected to be humble before God’s answers and His ways, not simply compare ourselves with Him.
