(from Sunday… and partially inspired by a conversation with Aaron 2wks ago, although the idea was one I’d pondered often prior…)
We are defined by doubt.
We are defined by doubt, because certainty is the antithesis of faith. If we did not doubt, we could not believe.
Certainty is of the enemy, because only God is perfect Truth, and our imperfect perceptions can never hope to approximate true knowledge. I thank the Lord for the wisdom and the courage to embrace doubt, because the strength we cultivate by wrestling with angels will serve us well when wrestling with demons.
We were made curious and questioning, with hearts and minds that ache to search for Truth. Let us pursue this relentlessly, and never give in to the desire to think that we already know.
