I navigated conflicting feelings of doubt and conviction from "summary" of Finding God in the Waves by Mike McHargue
As I grappled with doubt and conviction, I found myself torn between two opposing forces within me. Doubt crept in like a shadow, casting a veil of uncertainty over my beliefs. It whispered insidiously, planting seeds of skepticism in my mind. I questioned everything I once held dear, searching for answers in the void of uncertainty. On the other hand, conviction burned brightly within me, a beacon of unwavering faith that refused to be extinguished. It was a flame that flickered in the darkness, guiding me through the storm of doubt. Despite the doubts that gnawed at my soul, I clung to this sense of conviction, holding onto it like a lifeline in turbulent waters. Navigating these conflicting feelings was like walking a tightrope between faith and doubt. One misstep could send me tumbling into the abyss of uncertainty. Yet, I pressed on, determined to find a balance between these two opposing forces. I sought to reconcile doubt and conviction, to find a middle ground where they could coexist harmoniously. In the midst of this internal struggle, I realized that doubt and conviction were not enemies, but companions on the journey of faith. Doubt challenged me to question and seek answers, while conviction anchored me in my beliefs. Together, they pushed me to grow and evolve, to deepen my understanding of myself and the world around me. As I embraced the interplay of doubt and conviction, I discovered a newfound sense of peace and clarity. I no longer saw them as obstacles to overcome, but as essential components of my spiritual journey. They were not roadblocks, but stepping stones that led me closer to truth and understanding. In the end, I learned to navigate the turbulent waters of doubt and conviction with grace and humility. I accepted that uncertainty was a natural part of faith, and that doubt was not something to be feared, but embraced. Through this process, I found a deeper connection to my beliefs and a renewed sense of purpose in my spiritual journey.
