Our doubts about God may take several forms. Firstly we may
feel unsure about our relationship with him. We feel unworthy to be called his
own, we feel our sins are too much, that although we have asked to be his own
he has refused to accept us fully, that our Christianity is just a show off or
a rebound after a bad event, and that we are not “holy” enough.
Do you feel like that? If you have suffered some sadness, it
is quite possible that you may experience a sense of abandonment, a feeling that
he is too far away. Although this may be a rational thought or feeling, you
should know today that it is not true.
Secondly we may also doubt that what we believe is true. Suddenly
we start to try to logically rationalize our belief in God, doubting the validity
of the gospel and its relevance in our world. These thoughts and feelings often
clash with long standing belief and understanding about God, his goodness and
promises.
We bravely try to keep up our devotional habits as Christians
but the secrete doubts and hurts eats us away. These things can happen to any Christian,
I know it has happened to me before and here is my recommendation ; first,
treat your foundation, clear all religious routines and replace with spiritual
devotions and worship that come from your heart, in essence what I mean is, get
a personal relationship with God. And finally get enough dose of his word cos
that is the bedrock of our faith. Talking about the word of God, here’s one
that pulled me out of a bad place once. “For I am convinced that neither death
nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the past nor the future, nor any
powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be
able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our lord.” Romans
8:38-39
Happy Sunday y’all.
