Doubts
Doubts
Doubting may seems to be a negative attribute in life. Today let us take another alternative through doubts we have in life.
Seeing light in doubts is my title for tonight...........
- Doubts can be a way of responding and not a way of life.
Lets take a look at this:
I read this in John 11:6 and I kept thinking about it and ask for an interpretation from the holy spirit.
We do not know why Thomas, one of the disciple of Jesus was not there to witness Christ's resurraction. He just doubt that Jesus came back to life. Not even where his 10 other good friends told him about it.
Remember this core pointer : Not even 10 close friends could change his mind!
I was thinking about it and reflecting on our daily lives. Thomas is a great man of Faith thou he doubted. Maybe there is something for us to learn about from Thomas. (Likewise I always tweet, about my good friend Joseph from Hero of faith) Today, its Thomas turn to encourage me in life.
I learn that we can doubt without having to live a doubting way of life. For Doubts encourages rethinking. It can be purposed to sharpen the mind than to change it. Doubt can be used to post the question and to get an answer, and most importantly to push for a truth to sharpen decisions.
But doubt is never meant to be in a permanent condition. Doubt is lifting up one foot and positioning to step forward or back. So in between moving forward or back, we stay in a motionless position. Majiam (as if) doing Yoga.
When we experience doubt, take encouragment for Thomas, for he didnt stay in his doubt but allows Jesus to reveal the truth to him and bring him from disbelief to belief. Take this encouragement from the fact that human struggles with doubts, like all other countless followers of God. The answer God gives you is a great help.
God do not talk through audible voice, but though situations he shaped in front of us. Feelings that brought forth within that situation. Feelings that we cant even explain, feelings of in certain situations why do we feel joy even though craps are happening right in front of you. That is joy is God. God is joy and God is love. God is peace and God is calming.
Many times, God is speaking to us in our lives, we just didnt figure out that was him talking. He can fill out heart with emotions we cannot understand and plants seed that will bear fruits in our heart. We are born out of God. He shaped us with his bare hands, and breathe his breath into our body. In Genesis. We are created out of God's image and likeness. That is the reason why each and every of us has a God factor waiting to be discover when polishes or refined under trials of fire testing. When human God factor is in full blown, our true potential are maximised. We turn super creative and we have no fear to achieve what we suppose to do in life.
God do not want us to live in regrets or in agony. But in many times, because we are imperfect and blinded by the lies of the world. It hinders our potential to be full-blown. We have fear in life, timidity, we are easily tempted and we have uncertainty.
Therefore dont settle into doubts but move on from it. Check your blind spots, confirm front centre back, move your sedan out of the way. Slient doubts dont get answers.
God promised in the book of Mathew, ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it will be opened to you. Its a promise. God is almighty but only thing God cant do, its, God cannot lie. A promise is a promise. God's character doesnt allows him to lie. God has got no character flaws.
Good night, and may you seek and find some answers in life through this post.
