We never went through the dreaded "why" phase with our children when they were little, however, we had one that incessantly asked "what if...?" That was about as bad as "why", because he would set up scenarios that we would have to think through to figure out an answer. In the end, we started asking him "what if?" to make him think about how that situation would turn out, it did curtail some of the questions.
But how often do we truly ask what if? What if we go in this direction? What if we stay where we are? What if we choose this? What if we choose that? There are so many what if's in life, it can be a bit unsettling if you look at them all at once.
Let me throw this out into the world of what if's...What if we truly trusted God and did what He told us to do? What if we just obeyed, instead of, wanting all the answers right now before we get out of the boat? What if Christians dared to get out there and reach people?
What if...?
