A child wrote a letter to God asking Him why He allowed the river to flood his village and wash away his house. Do you think it is okay for the child to question God? Explain.

Answer:

Well, the child didn't question God really. If the child had asked how were you the first person or who created you then that would be questioning him, but many people that believed in God back then would ask God many things and God respond in signs or talk to you. This was a child who was curious about why he did it but God does many things for a reason that sometimes we may not understand.

Answer:

Asking why isn't bad, just how we respond to the answer. The entire book of Job is a good example
