When I read the bible, I love when GOD asks questions. He doesn't ask for himself. He already knows the answer. He asks us because he wants us to understand and get it. 1:He asked Adam, *“Where art thou?"* Sometimes we don’t realize where we are in life and it takes the voice of GOD to remind us. Gen 3:9 2.He asked Moses, *“What is that, you have in your hands?"* Many times the very blessing we need is already in our grasp. Exo 4:2 3.He asked Ezekiel, *“can these bones live?"* Sometimes you may think a situation in your life has died, But GOD is reminding you that it can live. Its not dead; Its not over! Ezekiel 37:3 4.He asked Abraham, *“Is there anything too hard for GOD?".* Think about that as you are going through life. I don’t care what it looks like. There is nothing too hard for GOD to do. *Nothing is impossible with Him.* Gen 18:14
