Doubting on the Journey

When's the last time you doubted? Can your faith be increased by doubting?

Do ever find yourself doubting God?  Questioning your faith?  Wondering if God is at work in your life and in your family? 

I will never forget the night I visited with a family after their grandfather died.  We had all hoped and prayed for his recovery from surgery when things took a sudden turn for the worse.

From his bed side a grandson exploded with the question on everyone's heart, "How can God let this happen? Where is God anyway?" Doubt hung in the air.

You may find that doubting and questioning your faith in Christ may build up your faith.  When you ask God and others the tough questions and when you express doubts, you may find yourself open to the working of the Spirit.

Joy in the Journey,
Pastor Durk Peterson
