Credibility - Do we do this with God?

Earlier this week I was having a blog-comment conversation about raising teenagers.  I shared a statement that I often give to my friends who aren't quite to that stage yet:

"It's like one day I suddenly lost all of my credibility and now I have to back up every statement that I make."

For example, this week my children were working on thank-you notes.  My son asked me how my sister spells her first name. 

I gave him the answer.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"How do you know that?"

"Shes my sister."

"Well, have you seen her spell it a bunch of times?"

Aghh! Are you kidding me?  She's my sister!

This type of conversation goes on daily at my house.

As I reflected on this conversation later, I started wondering if I ever sound like this to God.

How often do I question him when he gives me direction?

Do I ever sound stubborn and ridiculous to him?

I don't think I want to answer that - how about you?
