I'm Allowed To Question, Aren't I?


Isn't life all about wondering?
And trying to fathom out why…
All the things we see and feel,
And all the tears we cry?

Does it make me a bad person?
For getting angry at God up above!
For asking the reasons to why…!
For He's a God so full of love!

So He shouldn't get mad at me!
For didn't He put me here?
And give me lungs so that I breathe!
And oxygen fresh and clear!

Did He want me to just plod along in life?
And accept everything thrown my way…
Without thought or question as to why,
And without asking for answers I'd like today!

We believe without seeing, yes, it's true,
Well its certainly true for me!
But what I can't understand in life…
Is the suffering and pain that I see!

They say there's a reason for everything,
And yes, again, I believe that's true!
But the reasons are beyond my comprehension!
And my anger and upset shows through!

So does that mean God will judge me?
On my thoughts and questions I ask of Him!
Or will He still be the all forgiving…?
And cleanse me of my sin?

Does it mean I sin each time?
I have a thought or word or two…
And does it mean I'm a bad person?
Tell me, for I haven't a clue!

I try to be the best I can be,
And err to the side of good,
But sometimes I slip and fall over,
And ask questions, as I think I should!

Sometimes I rant and rave at Him,
And sometimes I'm really sad!
I tell Him what I think of this and that!
Tell me, does that mean I'm bad?

God help me I must have been so bad!
If we are given suffering for our sin,
For all the suffering on my head…!
Is sometimes a hard fight to win!

But yet here I am, living proof,
That God is not all that bad to me!
For no matter the questions I ask of Him,
His light is still there so that I can see!

So I walk through the valley of light,
God guiding and leading me…
Helping me to understand,
All it is I am supposed to believe and see!

He walks the path with me,
Up and down each dale…
But as long as He's at my side…!
Then I shall never fail!
