I Wanna Know Some Things...

My Questions For God
Tyler Powell

There are many questions that I plan on asking God when I get up to Heaven. There are the typical, more serious and deep ones that everyone wants to know, like why does God let bad things happen to people who try and live their lives for Him? And why are some people born into terrible situations? Of course, once we get up there everything will probably make sense immediately. But there are some personal questions that I really would like the answer to...

Bugs...Why???????????

This is my main question. Bugs just annoy me and scare me to no end. I can't enjoy a nice picnic or walk outside because there are always bugs trying to land on me and bite me. Their creepy little legs creep me out to no end. ARE THEY REALLY NECESSARY? COULDN'T YOU HAVE MADE THEM LESS ANNOYING/AFRAID OF HUMANS/JUST NOT EXIST AT ALL???? All of Your creation is beautiful in some way, Lord, but I could really do without these...

Why Don't You Show More Clear Signs?

I know trying to figure out Your will for my life probably builds my character and faith...but it would really be nice if you could just clearly spell out for me what Your will is and where you want me to go. What major should I pick? What career do you want me in? Who do you want me to marry? Should I eat this chocolate cake or lay off the sweets for a while? Life would be so much easier if You would clearly tell me what You want. But then again, mystery keeps life interesting, and keeps me seeking You. So in a way, I am grateful, even if I get stressed out about this a lot.

Are You Okay With Tattoos? And How About Screamo Music? And Playing Violent Video Games?

Thoseare legit questions, and every Christian seems to have a different opinion on them. I have my own opinions, but sometimes I question if my opinions are ones that line up with Your Word and Your ways. I mean I'm sure once I get up to Heaven, the answers to these questions won't matter anymore, but you never know. If You could answer them now that would be even better.

Can You Show Me All The Times In Life Where You Saved Me From Harm?

Of course You can! You're God! But will You? I'm just interested in seeing all the times when I thought things were going wrong, but it was really just You pointing me in the right direction. I'm sure I also fail to recognize most of the times when You caused something good to happen for me. For now, I'll just thank You for those times, even if I don't know what they are. Hopefully when I get to Heaven, by Your grace and mercy, I'll be able to see those times and laugh with You.

There are a variety of things I'd like to ask God. Some serious, some not so much. I'm not sure exactly what Heaven will be like, but just in case we're able to ask questions, I'll keep adding to my list, and maybe God will answer them while I'm here on Earth.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
