Permission Granted: Doubt your doubts
Throughout our faith journey, sometimes we feel as though we do not have permission to doubt. There are questions we think are off limits to ask and ideas that we don’t allow ourselves to explore. This makes us feel like we are outside the boundaries of what our faith allows. However, should would we really want to keep doubt out of our minds or does doubt actually help our faith? For the next 5 weeks we will see how understanding doubt is important to our faith.
When the author walks on the stage, the play is over. ~ C.S. Lewis
Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, “Do it again”; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, “Do it again” to the sun; and every evening, “Do it again” to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we. ~ GK Chesterton
We’d love to hear your story and how God is working in your life.
