If we had all the answers we would stop.
Think of a to-do list. Each task is asking to be done. When we check off everything in the list, we stop.
Think of job hunting. We ask to be hired. When the question is answered, i.e. we are hired; we stop looking.
And what about hunting? We ask, where is the deer hiding, when will the dove fly across the sky? We stop asking when we get our kill. And we stop hunting.
Questions keep us thinking. We are creative sometimes to discover the answers, depending on how much we want an answer. But we are better off if each answer leads us to another question. So that we can move, and grow and create.
There is only one time when we should stop asking questions: when God says, come home. There will be no more questions; we will have all the answers.
