Think before you speak or react is a very good policy, don't you think? Sometimes we might not blurt out our questions to God, but have we ever "thought" these questions to God? If one could check in with God and ask Him directly for 10 specific questions He definitely would not want to hear, do you think any of these would make the list? What questions do you think could be added to this list?
10. Oh no, manna again?
9. After I hit 490 times I don't have to forgive Deacon Jones any more right?
8. Since Al Doit volunteered for missions, I don’t have to think about it anymore, right?
7. Are you sure I can’t skip church this week, after all the Giants made the playoffs?
6. I already gave up one bad habit; do you really want me to give that one up too?
5. What do you mean “what’s in your wallet?”

14. "But Lord, how can I save Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family."
15. "if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us?"
16. "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from the words of my groaning? O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, and am not silent."
