You Are Not Alone in Your Doubt
Reading: John 20:24-25 - Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”
But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
Devotional: Thomas heard the testimony of ten other followers and still could not bring himself to believe. He was surrounded by people sharing an experience he had not had, and that distance was real. Doubt is not always the absence of faith — sometimes it is the honest cry of a heart that wants to believe but cannot yet see clearly. If you have ever sat in a room full of certain people while quietly struggling, you are in good company. Bring your specific doubt before God today. Name it. He is not surprised by it, and He is not finished with you.
Reflection: What is one specific thing you are struggling to believe right now?
