My grandson Steven told me that I shared three basic questions with him years ago that he uses every now and then when someone asks him a question about God.  He reminded me of what they were and I remembered. 
1. Is there something out there?
2. Is that something good or bad?
3. How would "it" communicate with you? 
     When you search your heart for meaning in your life, those three questions seem universal.  They are a beginning point in that search.  Who is this "something?"

     We want to know where we came from?  How we got here?  What is the point of our existence?  Why were we created?  What is expected of us?  Who do we answer to?  What do we hope for?  Is this all there is?  How do I get in contact with that "something" out there?

     For those of us who believe in God, that third question, "How would it communicate with you," was answered long ago:   "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds..." Hebrews 1:1-2

     The Bible is a book of prophecies, and prophecy fulfillment written over thousands of years.  It is unique in that what God said through his prophets always, without exception, happened.  Over and over and over again.  It is statistically relevant.  It has been repeatedly proved as historically accurate--especially by archaeologists.   Since it speaks to us about that "Something out there," it would be a good thing to start reading it.  It is the communication that answers most of our questions.  And it rings with a sense of truth.  It's a story about love.
