Thought For Today
Doubt is something that is a part of all our lives. It is okay to doubt, to have reservations, to question and to feel we need to know more. In our Gospels Thomas is one of the most obvious examples of someone who had major doubts. But they did not become a limiting story for him. His doubts allowed him to move on in his life with even greater conviction. We sometimes allow our doubts to take over and we forget to trust. Using the image of the dark room we sometimes need to wash the window. We need to allow more light to filter through into all our doubts.
A prayer starter might be:
Lord, I doubt from time to time. I have doubt in my own abilities and where I am going in life. Please shine some of your light and hope into any area of my life that feels in darkness and in particular those areas of my life where I have major doubts.
This week’s bulletin has been sponsored in memory of Kathleen Cassidy, Slushill.
