SOME DAYS

Some days seem to roll around and give cause for doubt and anxiety. I do not know why. There is not a particular lack of faith or purpose or circumstance. It just happens.

Here is what goes on: my mind seems marinated in doubt. Trying to transfer doubt to faith is not always an easy thing to do. The marinating has taken its toll. Now I must drag myself from marination to maturation. It means I must go to an unmovable reality to get to where I hope to be. Scripture is that reality. Few things in culture and society will have any affect. I am reminded that Jesus said, “I will never leave you or forsake you…” That will keep me hanging in there for now… though I feel nothing many times. It is a spiritual assent.

“My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand.” Jesus
