When Hard Questions Come

"One Year Bible" Old Testament History Passage
II Chronicles 8:11-10:19

Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she cameto Jerusalem to test Solomon with hard questions...and when she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart. II Chronicles 9:1 (NKJV)

Our job is to make Jesus famous. May the whole world know of His greatness, His grandeur, His majesty. We way to write across the skies: Our God is good!

When we do this, we can expect that the world will come calling. Like the queen of Sheba, the world comes full of questions. Our job is not just to tell the good news but also to meet the world with real answers to hard questions. This is part of the territory.

We cannot dodge the tough issues of life. It is in these challenging areas that the truth of God's Word shines brightest. When the world asks honest questions we must respond with real answers.

Some people are afraid of tough questions, but we need never be afraid. With prayer in our hearts and the Word of God in our hands, we can rise to all challenges.
