A thought on faith

 In the gospel, Jesus is asked 187 questions.  He answers maybe 8 of them, no more than that.

Conversely, Jesus himself asks 307 questions. 

Why do you think that is?  The answer is in his questions.  He answers the questions he was asked with a question back to them to help guide the person to their answers.

Maybe Faith isn’t about certainty, but learning to ask – and sit in the complexity of – a good question.

Something to dwell on.
