Before I became a Christian, that is about what I did, and I was not very polite about it, either.
God answered, but slowly enough so I could understand.
First, things happened to me that were just part of life, and I was blaming God. (Death of loved ones, accidents, other tragic events.....) God gives us the strength to handle these things if we just listen.
Second, I was not obedient to God, nor was I particularly interested in Him at the time, so why would He go out of His way to do anything for me?
Third, sometimes God lets things go wrong to prove something to you, and sometimes to prove something to someone else. Normally, He protects His children from the worst of life's mishaps.
Fourth, sometimes God is preparing you for something. Just like a bottle of medicine, you have to "Shake Well" before it is useful. God sometimes has to "Shake You Up" before He can use for for one of His intended purposes.
So, I don't bother with the WHY questions any more. I know there is a purpose, and that I will find out sooner or later anyway. I have been known to grumble from time to time, though.
"NOW, what are you up to?" is a favorite question, now.

Yes! Even Jesus (son of God) questioned God when he was on the cross! He shouted out asking His father "why did you forsake me?" He didn't fully understand why he was doing what he was doing yet....Everything seemed to be going "dead wrong" (literally) but God sees the WHOLE picture in everything not just the present.
If you feel like your life is going "dead wrong" I advise you pray about it and ask God for strength and wisdom to help you deal. Understand that whatever God does he does because He loves you, your struggles are a time to grow and learn more about your self and hopefully strengthen your faith. Remember other things will come and go, but God is always constant.
Yes, God does answer back, He answer prayers too!
Good Luck and God Bless.

First off, i'm really very sorry that life sucks for you right now... My life is not so good either right now... Same as everybody else, i guess... family dying.. friends dying... life is hard.
but please realize that it has NOTHING to do with gods, demigods, demi moore..... or any other fantasy.
I have died once already (during surgery), and i remember the experience completely... In fact, it is the most important memory in my life...So i can tell you more about life and death than your pastor, and all the other hypocrites that pretend to have answers to things they don't actually know anything about...
You came on here for an answer, so listen to mine.
When you die, you will have "tunnel vision", and it will look like a TV set turning off... You will feel very cold, and then darkness comes, and the sounds of thunder and waterfalls fill your ears.... You may hear your mothers voice repeating..
Then it will hit you! You have been thinking on a specific level, not taking scale into proper account..... The universe is so very vast, and also so very small.. you are stuck on one level of scale...
When you die, you will once again have access to all the other levels of scale (and time cannot make sense without scale)... You will see that the idea of "god" residing on the human level of scale is childish and silly...
god didn't say "HHHEEEERRRE's the UNIVERSE!!", nope, he say "i am"..
The universe, and everything in it, IS GOD.....
find someone to help, within your short time on earth.. that's the only balm for your wound.

There is absolutely no documented evidence that any kind of 'God' answers anyone back.What cracks me up the most about some Christians is the way they'll PRAISE GOD,and thank him endlessly when things go right...but won't give him a drop of blame when they don't.It's like they want it both ways.
One of the things I would truly wish for,would be that there is ALWAYS an answer to the question "why",but the fact is,sometimes there just ISN'T.I don't know what-if anything-is in store for us in the next life,all I know is that change is constant in THIS one.Keep rolling the dice,and a 7 comes up sooner or later.Do the best you can,and something good will happen eventually,it always does.Good luck.

God always answers those that believe, but we have to recieve His answer. Yes, No or Wait. Proverbs 3:5&6 Romans 8:28-30 Psalm 23. James chap. 1 Peace & Love

When I ask God 'Why,' specifically, "Why me?' the answer I always get (or at least come around to) is, "Why not?"
Honestly, horrible things happen to everybody. I'm not trying to belittle whatever pain you may be going through, but millions upon billions of people live entire horrible lives, through no real fault of their own, beyond the culture into which they were born. None of us have a monopoly on suffering. Life kicks you in the teeth, and there really isn't any rhyme or reason. Like they say, 'S*dirtyword* happens.

I've been absolutely down and out and with the help of God I made it through. I firmly believe in The Lord but I will be honest and say that I have had my moments of doubt. When I actually went to God with an open heart I started getting answers. It's alright to feel shaky but just keep an open heart and ask God what you want to know. It may not come to you like a flashing neon light but you will get answers.

God is a living God. If you just look to Him and say sincerely your failure or sadness whatever it may be, HE will look into it and talk to you dearly.
So kneel to Jesus right now and pray to Him. HE will solve all the problems. He loves you so much than you ever thought.

God does answer many questions like that. Have you read his answer? The Bible is his letter to you. Jesus said at John 17:3 that it means everlasting life to take in knowledge of the only true God and of his son,Christ Jesus. Jesus at John 17:17 says"Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth."
If you truly want answers, you will get them from the Bible only.
Jehovah's Witnesses have a free-home Bible study program that can help you. It's at your convenience and all answers are from your Bible. Never opinions given.

Yes I have ask that question before.
God does speaks to you but not literary speaking to you with His voice. You have to pay attention around you cause God may came to you as a person an animal or something that you don't expect. That is why you need to have faith with all you heart.
