#Doubts

No guilt should be felt when you have doubts. Doubting only proves that you are human. You are not a robot programmed to do without thinking. You were created in God's image. You were created with a mind, a will and emotions just like God. That mind serves it's purpose by questioning and reasoning. The will serves it's purpose by making decisions based on what the mind has concluded and the emotions are to be under the control of the mind and will.

Doubts are a good thing. It is what you do with them that matters. You could just hide from them and stick your head in the sand. You could let them control your thinking and let them take over your emotions and become a fool. You could take them to God.

If you were a student in a physics class and studying to take a crucial exam and could not understand how to solve a problem and the professor was sitting at his desk, would you even hesitate to go to him and ask questions? If you doubted your ability to solve the problem with your limited knowledge, would you not want to learn how to work it out when the resource was available?

The problem solver is available, always. He even asks you to come to Him. Isiah 1:18 is for you. He says; "Come, now, and let us reason together." He is waiting for you to come to Him. You don't have to get dressed up in your Sunday best or even wash your face. He says, come, now. When you have doubts, go to Him now. Tell Him what you are thinking.You could  give Him reasons for needing to know. He has big shoulders and will not be offended. Then, wait on Him to respond. It may take a while because you may not be ready to the answer. Your ducks may not be in a row and other issues may need to be addressed. Don't give up. Keep seeking and knocking and asking and if you are serious about knowing the truth, the answer will come at the right time.

The process is full of wonder and delight. The Treasure Is The Trip. The getting of the answer increases your knowledge of God and yourself.
