Jehovah I AM
“Because I said so.” Oh my goodness, the number of times my mother responded with those four words when I dared question her. In my own home, my husband has echoed much the same to our children, but from his point of view, “Because she is your mother.”
Like one of my children, I too was not shy of asking questions of my parents. Every day I still question many things and search for answers. Much of them are now from the Lord and His Word.
I’ll admit to spitting out a negative tone from my heart with the why’s battling against Mom’s good intentions, but today these questions come from a maturing, devoted heart to the Lord, and it is a good thing.
Moses had a lot of question for the Lord, too.
