What Questions Would I Ask God
The May 31, 2013 prompt for "Blogging Circle of Friends Prompt ForumOpen in new Window. is
Imagine you had an opportunity to sit down with God. What 5 questions would you ask Him?

It's Friday, May 31, about 7:28 AM Pacific Daylight time. I'm sitting in front of my computer, randomly sipping from a cup of leftover coffee which I warmed over in the microwave, and listening to my coffee maker brew a fresh carafe of coffee. Between sips of coffee, I stare at the prompt attempting to decide which five questions I would ask. I'm not sure that there are any questions I could ask God that I can't find the answers to in the Sacred Scriptures of the Baha'i Faith (revealed by Bahá’u’lláh or The Báb) and in the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá or Shoghi Effendi.

If I ask God a question,
what answer would I receive?
Pray for guidance
and go to the scriptures.

When I was younger, I had thousands of questions I wanted to ask God. Today, however, I have no questions that I can't find answers to. If I have a question, then I can write it down, find the online Baha'i Reference Library, or look in one of the books in my Baha'i library. It takes some searching and some work, but I can find the answer to any question I have. Therefore, there are no questions I would ask God if I had a chance to sit down and talk to the Divine Creator.

Questions...
an attribute of God;
Masá’il a month in the Baha'i calender,
Questions nineteen days
beginning on December 12
and ending on December 30.

Questions
the month of my birth;
I was born at
eleven minutes before midnight
on December 24,
which make my birthday Masá’il 14
because Masá’il 14 begins at sunset on December 24
and ends at sunset on December 25.

Food for Thought: "Can a mortal ask questions which God finds unanswerable? Quite easily, I should think. All nonsense questions are unanswerable." - C. S. Lewis
