Have you had doubts about God? Have you wondered if God was big enough to take care of your needs? Once in a while during our journey with the Lord, doubt may creep in. There were many characters in the Bible who doubted God. Some examples are Sarah, Gideon, Elijah, St. Peter and St. Thomas. When in doubt, the Bible encourages us not to lose faith, but instead to fight to find the truth. 2 Timothy 4:7 says, “I have fought the good fight…I have kept the faith.” We can allow God to clear our minds and enlighten us to the realities of who God really is. John the Baptist sends his disciples to Jesus to find out if He really is the Messiah. Jesus said, “Go and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight.., the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor.” Today, Jesus is speaking to the seed of doubt in our hearts. Instead of looking inside ourselves, or outside at the world for answers to our doubt, let us come to Him and give Him our doubts. He will eradicate the doubts.
Prayer: Abba Father, I place the doubts I have about You at Your feet. Speak to me and clear the doubts from my mind. Amen.
