Sometimes doubt drives us to question God.

Here's Nancy DeMoss Walgamuth.

It's okay to ask God why.

As long as you ask, not with a clenched fist, but with a searching heart.

There's a difference between those earnest, honest questions that we ask God

and coming to the place where we're making accusations or being

demanding of God that he'd give us answers and the answers we want and in the time we want.

Big difference.

impact on my life. Many years ago, as I sat

at the memorial service for my then-22-year-old brother who'd been killed in a car accident,

and a brother who was preparing to go into ministry, brother who had come to love the Lord

and had a real passionate heart for Christ and for people, and then just

quickly his life snuffed out. And in God's unfathomable choice and will and providence,

David was gone. And I remember sitting at that memorial service and hearing one of the

preachers say, it's not wrong to ask why.

As long as you ask, not with a clenched fist, but with a searching heart.
