In light of my last post, I’ve been thinking a lot, and it occurred to me that through valleys of doubt, my relationship with God nearly always improves. And while I am in a significant area of skepticism right now, it’s a different kind of doubt – my faith in God Himself is still strong, it’s just the method of being a spiritual person that is dogging me. I hunger for the Real Truth, and i know that it’s something none of us will ever know in this plane of existence, unless of course the Path to Perfection is true and we become perfect while living.
That is something I’m so far away from. And I realized this morning that doubt CAN lead to sin, but it doesn’t have to. While we are in times of doubt, we need to hold tightly to our principles and to the faith that we have retained. We need to embrace our doubt to grow, but if we embrace it too tightly then either our ourselves, or others, or the Enemy can get in and cause the doubt to eradicate our morals.
Then I thought that maybe this IS part of my calling: to write to those who are disenchanted with their religions, that have found their spiritual selves growing outside the box of truth they’ve been following and to encourage them to hold on to their values. Even in the worst storm, your soul does not lose the truth it knows.
