Accepting my doubts made me stronger in my faith from "summary" of Finding God in the Waves by Mike McHargue
In the midst of my doubts, I found a resilience in my faith that I never knew existed. It was a paradoxical realization - that by accepting my doubts rather than suppressing them, I actually became stronger in my beliefs. Embracing my uncertainty allowed me to engage with my faith in a more authentic and honest way. It forced me to confront the difficult questions and wrestle with the complexities of my beliefs. Instead of shying away from doubt, I leaned into it, seeking to understand the root causes and underlying motivations behind my questioning. Through this process, I discovered a deeper sense of trust and confidence in my faith. I no longer felt the need to have all the answers or to have unwavering certainty in every aspect of my beliefs. Instead, I learned to embrace the mystery and embrace the tension that comes with faith. By acknowledging my doubts and facing them head-on, I was able to cultivate a more resilient and grounded faith. I found strength in the vulnerability of questioning, and in the humility of admitting that I didn't have all the answers. This newfound sense of humility allowed me to approach my faith with greater openness and receptivity, leading to a more nuanced and mature understanding of my beliefs.- It was my willingness to grapple with doubt that ultimately strengthened my faith. It was through this process of questioning and seeking that I was able to deepen my connection to God and develop a more robust and enduring faith. Doubt, far from being a hindrance to my faith, became a catalyst for growth and transformation. And in embracing my doubts, I found a deeper sense of peace and a stronger foundation for my beliefs.
